Sure Juror

Sure Juror is the manifestation of Jonathan Heathcote’s (originally of Cardiff, Wales) quirky, satiric, experimental (by way of nostalgia) pop songwriting. The self- titled debut album, planned for release by and support from New Jersey based Soundless Records in early 2005, was overwrought with release difficulties; inevitably, Jonathan parted ways with the label. But in the wake of the well-received album, a band was fashioned, nearly unconsciously, of Jonathan, David Pass, Sean Wheatley, Luke Martin, and Joe Sheehan to support the album. The music has been ambiguously and ambitiously described as “The Beatles covered by the Smiths with Kurt Cobain playing guitar and Beach Boys harmonies.” Sharing the stage with a wide range of acts from gospel/ hip hop to hardcore to folk, Sure Juror has been very well-received by all and will fit on most bills.
