She Caught The Katy - JP & The Crossroaders


The Crossroaders are a blues band mixed in with a hint of country and rock, playing the likes of Lowell Fulson, The Allman Brothers and Free.

JP's voice is as great as ever and with a blues trio behind him it makes for a rockin' evening.

Since the Wiseguys, JP has been guesting with various players in the SW London area, but after a while he got an itching to start something new.

He started jamming with the Wiseguys original guitar player Steve Summers and they both felt the time was right to start something serious again.

They asked the original Wiseguys drummer Mark Orlovac to come on board and with three members signed up, all that was left to do was to find a bass player.

Dave Albon was known to JP and he was asked to come along to a rehearsal. The quartet locked in immediately and the Crossroaders were born.

Moving away from the swing/jump blues from the Wiseguys, the Crossroaders are more Chicago-esque with great tunes and great playing to match.
