DID SOMEONE SAY FESTIVALS?

We're still busily writing album number two, but we just couldn't stay away from all the action happening this summer after some burning some serious midnight oil in the studio. That's right baby, we're hitting the mighty Donington to play Download Festival, then we're off to Steelhouse Festival in lovely Wales, and we'll also be rocking Solfest out in Cumbria!

See you there!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We had an absolutely fantastic mini-tour of the UK, thank you so much to everyone who came down to rock with us!
The Guardian gave us a neat little write-up. Oh, and we had a terrific picture review in The Times! And here's what some other rather lovely people had to say so far:

"Only by watching Lynne give her performance can you truly appreciate why soul is called soul," over at Get Ready To Rock
"If you want to see a band playing 60s and 70s influenced party rock 'n' roll then there is no better band in the country right now," over at Harmonic Prospector

We can't wait to hit the road again, but first, we'll be concentrating all our efforts on writing album number two. Exciting times!

And don't forget to check out our online store, complete with our new tour shirt!

SAINT JUDE NEWS...

We didn't win the Best New Band award at the Classic Rock Awards on 09/11/11, but we did get to hang out with some serious legends, and there's always next year of course.. Lynne was on the same table as Steel Panther, which was great fun, as you can imagine.

Having Diary Of A Soul Fiend in with this month's Classic Rock mag, with an interview with Lynne, and pics, and a tour ad makes it look a little bit like Saint Jude Monthly, which is of course no bad thing... Resistance is useless...

The recent acoustic session was really great, so please feel free to download Garden Of Eden for free (link up the top), and you are of course welcome to encourage others to do so (which will help us build our mailing list so go for it peeps!). We're thinking of releasing the acoustic session at some stage soon, so watch this space.

In the meantime check out our new online store, more items to be announced soon, all designed to make you look like a Maximum Rock 'n' Roll Fiend, and help you spread the SJ word at the same time...

Thanks a lot, and keep it real and keep it rock...

SAINT JUDE ANNOUNCE DEBUT UK TOUR!
Rolling Stones-approved rock and soul band Saint Jude are proud to announce their debut mini-tour of the UK this December!

"Saint Jude are a rock and roll stick of dynamite waiting to explode!" Classic Rock

"Saint Jude are embryonic superstars." Tribune

"It's easy to see why Ronnie Wood and Jimmy Page are fans." Q

London’s Saint Jude are easily one of the rock industry’s most hotly-tipped acts. Recently nominated Best New Band at the 2011 Classic Rock magazine Roll of Honour, the ferociously talented six-piece are fresh from a whirlwind summer circuit that included the UK’s Guilfest, Cornbury, Sonisphere, and High Voltage festivals where they positively brought the house down on the main stage.

Spearheaded by the jaw-dropping vocal talents of soul diva Lynne Jackaman, whose breathtaking range and delivery has invited comparisons to everyone from Janis Joplin to Tina Turner to Aretha Franklin, her voice is truly once in a generation, and her collaborations with artists as diverse as Ray Lamontagne, Snoop Dogg, and Frankie Miller speak volumes about her abilities.

Backed up by a Hammond B-fuelled tight-as-a-drum five-piece that conjure The Faces one moment and the Black Crowes or the Allman Brothers the next, Saint Jude are easily one of the UK’s hottest talents.

Following the release of last year’s rapturously-received Diary Of A Soul Fiend, a debut album produced by Rolling Stones-producer Chris Kimsey, recorded in Kentucky and featuring a guest performance Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, Saint Jude have won acclaim from fans and critics alike. Catch ‘em while you can.

Tickets will go on sale at 9am on Monday, September 19th.
