A regular on the Australian independent music scene since age 15, Jules Sheldon was mentored by rock icon Spencer P. Jones (Paul Kelly Band, Beasts Of Bourbon, The Johnnys) who produced his self-titled debut album in 2010.
Since then, he's added another two albums to his discography, each as different from the other, but still tied together by his careful and detailed song writing. The last few years haven't been easy. Losing both mentors in Jones and his Beasts of Bourbon bandmate Brian Henry Hooper made Sheldon question if he could go on as a musician.
Rediscovering his love for music after a lot of soul searching, it was revisiting some of his favourite songwriters, and the formation of his new backing band 'The Boundary Riders', which gave him his mojo back. Crafting a jangly but punky alt-county sound, the result is the album 'Electric Transport'. With nods to Paul Westerberg, Tim Rogers, and Robyn Hitchcock, Sheldon creates a love note to these cherished artists, while also making an album that is truly unique.
See him launch it with The Boundary Riders on October 25th at The Catfish with support from Midnight Violet & Howl. Tickets on sale now and the album will be available for purchase from September 2nd.
"Think Ray Davies melodic stylings with a healthy dose of the spirit & vibes from his beloved mentor Spencer P. Jones." - Kim Salmon (The Scientists, Surrealists)
"There's a sense that Tramways, The Uncles, Burning Schools are important subjects to sing about. It's not as if the delivery is overly earnest or that anything is laboured, just that Sheldon and his inspired band deliver the songs in a way that is as believable as it is enjoyable. There's enough rock n' roll swagger to lend the varied subject matter a sense of credibility that feels natural and unforced. It feels logical, sincere. It feels like fun for godsake. And isn't rock n' roll supposed to be fun?" - Mick Thomas (Weddings Parties & Anything)
