The Grandstand Jockeys came out of the gate releasing three grunge pop EP's. All with victorious titles, "Win", "Place" and "Show". Founder Ron Burris reached out to his friend, musical collaborator Dan Dismore, the owner of Overit Studios. Some training with mastermind producer Dave Parker (Coheed and Cambria, Stellar Young) to help. The band charged to the local stages and all bets were on this little band from Upstate New York. The goal of the race was to make it to the winner's circle, and win big they did. After some lineup changes TGJ now consists or Morgan Smith on Lead Guitar/Backing Vocals, Brian Rex on Drums / Backing Vocals, Matt Schwartz - Bass , Ron Burris on Guitar/Vocals. We had a chance to meet at the clubhouse with Ron to find out, what is the next prize the band has their eye on?
