Pre-order Jonny Polonsky's upcoming LP Rise of the Rebel Angels, out May 12, 2023 via Loosegroove Records/The Orchard. Already familiar with his earlier music, Pearl Jamfounding member Stone Gossard and his partner Regan Hagar jumped at the opportunity to release Jonny's new album through their newly revived record label Loosegroove Records.
Stone says, “Jonny's music touches on every great era of rock but he deeply resides in the 70s and early 80s of the T. Rex, Bowie, Iggy, Johnny Thunders.., my favorite. He is a phenomenal musician, producer, singer, lyricist and human and couldn't be more excited to have him be part of the Loosegroove family.”
Jonny says, "On about half of the tracks, it is actually my guitar and vocal iPhone demos that you are hearing. The album is just the right amount of sloppy, because sometimes, that makes things sound more interesting."
Jonny’s first album Hi My Name Is Jonny was released through Rick Rubin’s American recordings after signing him on a recommendation from The Pixies’ Frank Black. The album has maintained a cult following throughout the years and inspired an award-winning Belgian documentary Hi My Name Is Jonny Polonsky, which chronicled Jonny’s 2020 tour of Belgium.
As a result of his renowned musicianship, Jonny has been sought after by well known musical names to give artistic input and collaborate on their projects including: Johnny Cash on the last song he ever wrote, “Like The 309”, Maynard James Keenan, Pete Yorn, the late Mark Lanegan, Tom Morello and The Dixie Chicks to name a few
