JP Chrissie & The Fairground Boys = Chrissie Hynde's new band (playing a free show in Brooklyn tonight)
“J P, Chrissie and the Fairground Boys – Biography by Chrissie Hynde I first met J. P. Jones in London, November 2008. I was propping up the bar on my own at a party at The Double Club in Highbury.. I was about 5 screwdrivers in when some scruffy boy-band looking guy sauntered over to the freebie bar.. He was pretty hammered too, but we managed enough of a conversation for me to ascertain that he was a musician; recently gone solo after his band ‘Grace’ split, and grew up on a fairground in Wales… [stuff happened]…. The Fairground Boys are, Patrick Murdock on guitar, Vezio Baccio , bass, Geoff Holroyde , drums and Sam Swallow on piano /keyboards. Chrissie Hynde , January 2010
Their first gig was in April in LA. Their next gig is in Brooklyn TONIGHT (6/2)…
