Jegsy Dodd and the Original Sinners

Only Football Can Truly Break Your Heart

About Me

LOQUACIOUS, LOQUACIOUS, LOQUACIOUS The second album from Jegsy Dodd & the Original Sinners is OUT NOW and available from www.jegsydodd.com It's fantastically enjoyable, and thoroughly engaging, with a down to earth honesty,...oh, and err...it's fuckin' dead good too. Jegsy Dodd, a poet from the Wirral, Merseyside, first came to public attention back in 1985, when the late John Peel picked out his demo and invited him to record a BBC session. In 2005, he released the album 'Wake Up and Smell the Offy' and the single 'Only Football Can Truly Break Your Heart' in 2007. For more info on the Dodd see www.jegsydodd.com
