Plain Jane Automobile

Plain Jane Automobile (AKA PJA) is an indie rock band based in Orlando, Florida, United States. They have existed as a band for the past seven or eight years, but reinvented themselves in 2005 with key new members, and have not changed the line-up since. The band's current line-up consists of James "Duke" Crider (vocals), Luis Mejia (guitar), Paul McCorkell (bass), and James Dickens (drums). The band started from a collaboration between Duke Crider and Luis Mejia. The pair's ability to write songs and drive their live shows led to their meeting Paul McCorkell and James Dickens. They got the title of “Best Unsigned Band” in the Southeast at the 2005 Discmakers Independent Music Showcase, PJA's premier single “Close My Eyes” made waves in regular rotation on Orlando's OROCK 105.9 (WOCL). The quartet's compelling sound echoes from pockets worldwide, as multiple PJA tunes now occupy millions of Nokia cell phones in various countries. In 2006 they released with the tiny Foundation a self-titled EP called Plain Jane Automobile, just like the successor album, with the same songs but released by Eighth Dimension Records. In 2008, they released The Collector. They also toured extensively throughout the United States with fellow indie rock band Ours, with guitar, vocal and keyboard tour support by Matt Vetter winning many new fans. In 2009, they planned another tour, as well as working on songs for a new album. In 2010 the band was working on the follow-up to The Collector. In March 2011, a series of promo videos for the new self-released album, Your Tomorrow, were posted on Band's Facebook page. In 2013 they released Our Wild Love with 6 tracks. Despite the period in silence, they are still in activity! [u]Contact[/u] : E-mail: plainjaneautomobile@gmail.com Twitter: @plainjaneautomobile Site: https://plainjaneautomobile.bandcamp.com/
