2011 finds John Mayock stepping out
with John
Mayock and The Homesteaders. You may be familiar with Johns
work with his brother Tim in the Folk/Country/Americana ensemble The
Mayocks. As primary songwriter John
produced three critically acclaimed CD releases showcasing brotherly harmonies
and solid songcraft.
The Homesteaders lineup
includes veteran Mayock band members drummer Dennis Cotton and guitarist Dennis
Fancher and new member bassist Jeff
Belcher. The groups sound is edgy, aggressive roots-rock and driven by
John's exceptional songwriting and the bands masterful musicianship.
If you like Wilco, Tom Petty,
Ryan Adams, Neil Young, The Jayhawks or bands that combine folk sensibilities,
rock sexuality, country harmony and R&B groove PLUS, aching, airy songs with
catchy melodic hooks, set to music that matches the sparkle of pop with the
twang of true country - you'll love John Mayock and The
Homsteaders.
