The Freddy Jones Band came out of Chicago playing roots rock the old-fashioned way: loose, twangy guitars, rolling grooves and songs that sound made for a long drive with the windows down. Their heroes are right out in the open, too, Duane Allman, Eric Clapton, Little Feat, Mark Knopfler and Bob Dylan, and you can hear every one of them in the jams.

And no, there's no Freddy Jones in the band. Guitarist Wayne Healy said the name came from a cartoon character called Freddy, and it stuck. The lineup has included Healy, brothers Jim and Rob Bonaccorsi, Simon Horrocks, Nick Kitsos and Marty Lloyd.

Their self-titled debut in 1992 had "In A Daydream", and Waiting for the Night, in 1993, brought "One World".
