The Next Track X Track Episode Comes Next Week With Jesse James Dupree From Jackyl
Recently, Jesse James Dupree from Jackyl, was nice enough to spend some time talking about every track on their debut record. From “I Stand Alone” to “When Will It Rain” and of course, “”The Lumberjack”. He talks about a song he wrote for the band Kansas, but used himself and why. He told a crazy story of a time they played in Seattle and a legendary grunge group was kicked out of the venue. We talk about a political song on the record, working with famed producer, Brendan O’Brien and LOTS more.
It drops on March 9th. You can watch the promo below…..don’t miss it!
