Ex-Jam rhythm section Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler will be hitting the roads on a new tour under the moniker From The Jam, powered by Kia.
The former Jam members will embark on a 20-date tour of the UK with Russell Hastings on vocals and guitar and Dave Moore on guitar and keyboards.
Reportedly the former hellraisers decided on a Kia Sedona as their method of transport due to its comfort, gadgets and versatility.
The punk rockers note that the MPV provides ‘a lot of space for guitars, drum sticks, microphones and cool shoes’.
However, Kia’s press release does note that because of the Sedona’s in-car entertainment system ‘the iPod can still turn up to 11!’, which strikes us as quite amusing.
Anyway, the band is in the process of recording new material that is due for release in 2008, on the heels of a 20-date tour UK tour taking in London, Southampton, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Sheffield and Glasgow.
Singing for his supper, Russell Hastings comments: “The Sedona is definitely a fantastic tour bus to keep From The Jam jammin’.”
Oh dear.
