Hope is on the way
I once heard that mean old talk-show host Dr. Laura say, “Hope is not a good strategy.” I’ve never given much credence to anything that crotchety giver of advice had to say, though, and neither should you. Hope is a fine thing, especially when we’re talking about the band 56 Hope Road.

56 Hope Road : Law of Attraction
The opening chords of "Whole Way Down" twist and turn in an improvisational blender that defines the beating heart inside Law of Attraction, the bright, engaging CD from Chicago's 56 Hope Road.

   About 56 Hope Road
Band Bio .. .. ..

.. .. Read our professional bio at 56HopeRd.com.

What do you call the music? Acoustic funk? Jam Rock? It ain't hard to get a musician to spend 45 minutes talking about what genre their music is, or how it's really impossible to classify, so let's just say it's real fun acoustic rock. Jammin', sometimes poignant, sometimes super-funk. We got Dave and Anne rockin' the vocal harmonies, a great rhythm section consisting of Greg and Chad with Matt on percussion, plus a bunch of soloists that sit in. Listen to some tracks and see for yourself.

We are the Jam Base 2007 Road Warrior! We have played more shows in 2007 than any other band at jambase.com. Chances are, we'll be playing somewhere close to you! Visit our page at jambase.com).

You can buy our CDs at our website, www.56HopeRd.com. We've just released our new album Law Of Attraction. Pick up some of our tracks from our Snocap store above!!

Peace!
56
