John Jerome and the Great 88, Moncton’s newest duet, are releasing their first EP. Never Put Out on the First Date is the result of collaboration between guitarist John Jerome, formerly of Heimlich, and pianist Julie Robichaud, formerly of Alaxy and the Galaxys. The CD features three original songs with the band’s musical influences ranging from blues to folk, indie rock and even classical.
The EP is put out by HandMade Music, a small Moncton-based independent label. Recorded by John and Matt Hogg, this EP is a simple example of the do-it-yourself way of music production. The band’s authenticity will also manifest itself in the live performances by the use of an acoustic piano on stage as opposed to an electronic keyboard.
