Lightnin Rod & The Thunderbolts: Home

Hi Everyone!

A new year is upon us. I hope all is well with you. We have had a great deal happening here, so let me begin.

Both "All American Blues" and "After The Storm" are listed on Billboard.com. We are also now getting airplay on superhits 247.com.

Our video, "Close To You" was featured on the NME First For Music site for January. This is an online magazine located in the U.K. And speaking of videos, "Sugar and Spice" is now on Pure Charts in France.

Recent stories about my music have been written in Music Scenes in Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota, Indiana & Wisconsin. Stories have been printed about the recordings in several different languages(even though I have no idea what they are saying). Both CD's are available world wide via Amazon.com. I just recently became aware that my ringtones are available in Japan via Yahoo.

In October, I was chosen from over 12,000 musicians to receive a new amp cover and t-shirt from D2F covers. They put out a fine American-made product and I appreciate it greatly. I am now endorsing their products.

I have written 17 new songs and some of them have been demoed. We will take our time putting out a new project as we are looking for sponsors and label support.

You can see the music videos by going to YouTube and typing in Lightnin' Rod & The Thunderbolts. Also on YouTube we have recently added a few old videos from my Gospel Rock days. The video, "Can't Stop Rockin'", received a thousand views in the first week it was up.

I am still looking to fill some dates on the calendar this summer. If you know someone that might be interested in bringing us to your town send me an email for details.

Until next time, "The Blues Is Alright!"
