Jealous Radio

About Me

Jealous Radio is a tuneful trio hailing from the south of Kalamazoo attempting to resurrect the lost arts of classic rock songwriting, punk energy, and pop music-experimentalism. After forming as "Lift" back in 2006 with a core line up of Ben Bojanich (vocals, guitar), Paul Isaacs (thunder), and Jon Root (guitar, vocals) the band experienced many-a-lineup change before collaborating with Scott Walls (bass, detuned piano) to record NV. Due to geographic difficulties Jealous Radio involving Scott, Ben has again picked up bass and we've stripped back the guitars for a tight live sound. We've found our footing and we're bringing our music to the masses in the sweatiest and most honest way we know how: through live gigs. ____________________________________________________________ _____ Get Your Own Myspace Layouts @ MyspaceLayouts.cc !
