JJ Grey & Mofro: Ol’ Glory in full

JJ Grey & Mofro have streamed ninth album Ol’ Glory in full via TeamRock.

The 12-track follow-up to 2013’s This River is released today via Provogue Records – and the label say it’s a continuation of the band’s “deep, soulful blues, rock, folk, gospel, R&B” vibe.

They add: “Ol’ Glory contains the personal, Southern-inspired narratives that have become synonymous with JJ Grey & Mofro.

“The material reflects two themes that run through their entire body of work – a strong sense of place, and finding happiness with where you are in life.”

The band tour Europe next month, including a stop at London’s Islington Academy on March 18. Ol’ Glory is on sale via Amazon in CD and digital formats.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
