Since the bands inception in 2004, Roosevelt Jenkins has released two EPs; their self-titled debut in 2006 and Hear Ye! in 2007. Roosevelt Jenkins has been fortunate enough to play on the stages of several of their favorite music venues in Chicago, most recently landing on the “Songs from a Scene 2007” bill at Metro. Their local fan-base has grown with the support of friends and family and the intrigue created by their captivating stage presence. They owe much of their success to the Chicago radio station Q101.1-WKQX which has supported Roosevelt Jenkins’ every move since catching wind of the band in the Winter of 2006.
The musicians of Roosevelt Jenkins have made the choice to endure the trials and tribulations of a band lifestyle. Many people can attest that keeping a band together is one of the most difficult jobs out there, but music instantly consumed the members of Roosevelt Jenkins and it is the driving force in each of their lives. Their influences are all over the rock map, and with one listen, you will notice that their music tests the limits of the rock genre. Perhaps most importantly, Roosevelt Jenkins hopes that their music can make a positive impact on the world and the lives of its fans in the same way that their own lives have been positively affected by the universal language of music.
Roosevelt Jenkins released their first full-length album, Turn Your Lights On, in July of 2008. The band wants to thank each and every person that has been involved in this project (you know who you are), and they are excited to have their music reach the ears of more and more fans. See you soon...
