Do you all remember Staceys Mom? Well those familiar with this song would know that this ear worm was a very popular song back in the early 00's, it was nominated for not 1 but 2 Grammys and they even managed to bag a No 1 video (I wonder why? Staceys mom was hoooooot!) It was sung by American rock band Fountains of Wayne for which Jody Porter was the lead guitarist.
He has also been in bands such as "The Belltower" and "The Astrojet" back in the day, this man has a wealth of talent and I was honoured to chat to him.
A lot has happened between now and then, In 2008 Jody finished work on his debut solo album, Close to the Sun. The 12-song album bridges the gap between the sonic atmospheric stylings of the Belltower and the guitar-driven power pop of Fountains of Wayne.
His second solo album, Month of Mondays, was successfully funded via Kickstarter in 2013 and in December 2020, Porter released his third studio album Waterways.
He then released EP1 in summer 2023 and we now eagerly await his most recent album EP2 which is due to be released in October!!
We chatted about his veteran years in the music scene, he took me on his personal journey throughout his career, the good, the bad, the ugly!
We even joked about getting Staceys Mom back in the charts?
Who's up for it then?
