SONS OF JO is a rock band from California formed in 2018. Founded by Songwriter Chadd Rosenberg (Vocals, Guitar, Bass, Electronic Drums). Members include Scott Rosenberg - (Bass, Guitar, Vocals) Todd Rosenberg - (Live Drums, Guitar, Bass). The three brothers who make up SONS OF JO have a long and complicated history that began the same year as the title of their 2024 EP "1991". Chadd was playing in an alt-synth pop band when Scott approached him about being the singer in his early 80s style hard rock project "Bengal Blue". The band only lasted a short while, and the music was never recorded or released. Chadd states,"It was Christmas 2012, and we all got together to record the music of our teenage hair band. It was just for fun, but the tracks turned out better than we thought, then we went our separate ways and we never finished them." In 2018 Todd and Chadd put out the EP "The Battle Within", and then Chadd released a couple of singles in 2019 and 2020. "We didn't take any of it too seriously," Chadd says, "Todd was the full-time musician and a founding member of Mad Caddies (Fat Wreckchords) , but in 2023 Scott and I got together and decided to put together a full-length album." Now the duo, with contributions from Todd on drums plans on releasing upwards of 15 tracks over the next couple of years. "Finishing the 1991 ep was just to clear the exhaust out the pipes. All our music is now is modern rock. It's exciting to see the writing chemistry is still there."
