JD and the Longfellows are a five-piece formed in SE London, England in 2006 and are partly Canadian-Irish-Scottish-English and Welsh. They have a style alternatively described as Psychoskiffle, Renegade Folk, Urban Country, Thigh Slappin' Western, SlapHeadBilly, Landlubber Surf and Howlin' Hootenanny. 'Happy Hour Again' (February 2008) is their second album. It features 12 brand new tracks, some of which were written by Karma Clayfellow and Clare (Portman) Shortfellow. Happy Hour delves into the darker side of the human condition, touching on the tragedy and raw emotions involved in topics such as love, death, retribution, forgiveness, life on the road and castigation - even after death. However, throughout, humour, laughter and the celebration of life ring out and of course there is more than a little drinking going on - see Welcome to the Morning After. There is even a birthday song for the 21st century. And most of all, there are plenty of songs to get the toes a tappin' and the feet a stompin'. When not in the recording studio Jd and the Longfellows played getting on to 80 gigs in 2007.
They went on three UK tours and performed at top clubs such as What's Cookin' in Leytonstone, London Callin' at the 12 Bar Club, Gypsy Hotel in N London and Club Orange in Islington. They have also supported bands such as Neck (twice), Some Dogs and Alabama 3, played a few festivals, including being opening act to an opera: - 'La Boheme' at Canizzaro Park on Wimbledon Common, the Winchester Folk Festival, Basingstoke Live and the Fart Fairies Rugby and Skiffle Festival and also played in front of hundreds (if not thousands) of sunworshippers on Brighton Beach.
