Hero Jr. - #OrangeJams​ w/ Jam in the Van

Hero Jr. is Evan Haughey (vocals, rhythm guitar) from Bridgman, MI, Ken Rose (lead guitar) from Los Angeles, CA , Dave DuBrava (bass) from Binghamton, NY, and Ryan Keyes (drums) from Minneapolis, MN.

HERO JR’s new album “Everyone” was recorded live in the band’s rehearsal space during the end of 2019 and throughout 2020. Evan Haughey and Ken Rose have been creative partners for almost 15 years and although they sat down with acoustic guitars and wrote the nine original “Everything” songs in a week, the band spent more than a year “living” with the songs until they settled into their current versions. In the past HERO JR honed their new material on tour, but in the midst of a pandemic, and a music business stand-still, breaking in new material in front of an audience was impossible. “We had the time to explore each song and arrangement letting them take us where they wanted to go. The pandemic kept us off the road but gave us the gift of time that we never had to develop our songs. The band recorded different versions of the new songs, all live, with no overdubs and the arrangements fell into place with each member contributing their own voice.” One of the band’s musical trademarks is improvised breakdowns that offer the listener unexpected detours within the rock and roll song structure. HERO JR is not afraid of extremes and can seamlessly integrate heavy riffs and grooves with funk and spacey soundscapes without losing their identity as a rock band. Lyrical themes on “Everyone” range from introspection, growth and change (“Motion Sickness”), social conditions (“Born In It”), to a tribute honoring Chicago frontman and guitarist Terry Kath (“One For Me One For You”). While Haughey and Rose write from their own personal experiences listeners often find their own connection, as “Everyone” leaves plenty of room for the listener’s imagination.
