"Take about two cups of Johnny Cash add a dash or two of Tom Waits, and a smidgen of the psychobilly or punk roots that began molding him years ago, and you have Jack Cade."
"I love this album for so many reasons. It’s honky-tonk or is it? It’s country, or is it? It’s blues, or is it? It continuously keeps the listener guessing. I on the other hand, after hearing the first track, the title cut, “This Fiery Road”, decided not to categorize, but instead, simply enjoy this extremely unique brand of whatever it is." By 'Rebel' Rod Ames
Jack Cade puts his musical leanings down to a mixture of watching Sergio Leone westerns far to many times and his early years spent sitting in his grandparents kitchen on a Sunday afternoon, whilst the roast dinner was in full swing, with the radio spewing out any number of country tunes. "I clearly remember as a kid how much I loved those songs, they sounded more like stories to me, a particular favourite was the Tennessee Ernie Ford version of '16 Tons', I never really understood at that age what it was all about, I just loved the idea that you could owe your soul to the company store"
September 7th 2011 saw the release of Jack Cade and the Everyday Sinners debut album 'This Fiery Road', 6 months in the recording and 5 years in the writing, it blends a mix of Country, Americana and Folk and draws on the experience of the road traveled, from growing up in the Medway Delta to time spent living on the west side of Reading. He has rough and ready baritone voice and as he says "I write and play simple songs because that's the way I play and I sing the way I do because it's the only way I know how." The Fiery Road is a direct reference to the Oxford Road, Reading where Jack lives, and is one of many local inspirations scattered throughout the album.
The album brings together a varied and very talented bunch of musicians to form the backing band 'The Every Day Sinners', comprising Tom Anderson, Andy Purcell, Andy Goodchild, Phil Berry, Ben Cox-Smith and Alex Anderson with guest appearances from Matt Holland and Tony Whennel. The live performances feature a trimmed Everyday Sinners of Tom Anderson, Mike Muggeridge and Adam Perry.
