BREAKING IN (2004) The debut, when ROADs were a 5-piece, with the husky vocal stylings of Josh Geffin. Some are lucky enough to catch ROADs live, on those special occasions when Josh turns up to join the party. The most bluesy, americana country, jazz tinged set that ROADs have written to date. *Includes 'Having It Easy' B-side to the debut single, Nelson Mandela Said (2006).
COME ONE, COME OVER (2005)
The sophomore effort that sees ROADs branch out in all directions and displays their natural ability to write exceptionally beautiful and catchy songs. With Doug and Dave now on vocals, the new 3-piece create space that allows all three musicians' capabilties to shine. Through the sincerity of each track it remains an album that comes straight from the heart. Recorded whilst hidden away at a secret location in the deepest south-western countryside, this album sounds more like it was recorded whilst on Safari in Africa. From the opener, 'Baby Can You Hold Me', to the closing anthemic 'Africa', this album is a journey that comes highly recommended.
SHAKE YOU UP (2006)
ROADs strip back and break down their material, producing their most intimate, roots driven record to date. With the success of Come On Come Over, the boys seem keen to show the fans that it really is all about the songwriting. No gimics, no brass section, this is pure, simple and clear. With most of this album now being a clear favorite with their live audience, this has to be ROADs most understated album to date.
