In this special edition of the podcast, James caught up with Jess and the Bandits for a chat before their performances at the Long Road festival in Leicestershire. The interview went so well it wasn't really like an interview, more like a chat between friends so we decided to release it in it's entirety. Jess & the boys talk with warmth and humour about current album, 'Smoke & Mirrors' and about their place in the UK Country scene and even drop of few hints of what we can expect from them in the future. Enjoy. Check out our other reviews and interviews at www.lyricmagazine.co.uk
