'''Jesus Jones''' are a British alternative rock band from Bradford-on-Avon in Wiltshire, formed in late 1988, who continue to record and perform, as of 2025.<ref name="The Great Rock Discography">{{cite book | first= Martin C.| last= Strong | year= 2000 | title= The Great Rock Discography | edition= 5th | publisher= Mojo Books | location= Edinburgh | page= 504| isbn= 1-84195-017-3}}</ref><ref name=JesusJones_WebsiteTour>{{cite web| date=2024| title=Jesus Jones: Tour Dates| url=https://www.jesusjones.com/tour-dates/ |website=Jesusjones.com|access-date=2024-07-30}}</ref> Their track "Right Here, Right Now" was an international hit, and was subsequently globally licensed for promotional and advertising campaigns. The single was also nominated for a Grammy Award at the 34th Annual Grammy Awards in 1991, as was its album, ''Doubt''.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-11-23|title=Jesus Jones|url=https://www.grammy.com/artists/jesus-jones/7772|access-date=2021-01-25|website=Grammy.com|language=en}}</ref> They also achieved chart success with the songs "Real Real Real", "International Bright Young Thing" and "Info Freako".

==Career== ===''Liquidizer, Doubt'' and ''Perverse'' (1989–1995)=== In 1989 Jesus Jones released their debut album ''Liquidizer'', featuring the singles "Info Freako", "Never Enough" and "Bring it on Down",<ref name="Larkinindie">{{cite book|title=The Guinness Who's Who of Indie and New Wave Music|editor=Colin Larkin|publisher=Guinness Publishing|date=1992|edition=First|isbn=0-85112-579-4|pages=150/1}}</ref> all of which narrowly missed the top 40 in the UK Singles Chart.

In early 1990, Jesus Jones recorded their second album, ''Doubt'', but their record label was forced to delay its release until the beginning of 1991.{{why?|date=September 2019}} The album sold well, due to the success of "Right Here, Right Now".<ref name="Larkinindie"/> The song is about the swift end of the Cold War, and reached No. 2 in the US and No. 31 in the UK.<ref name="NME Rock 'N' Roll Years 3">{{cite book | first= John | last= Tobler | year= 1992 | title= NME Rock 'N' Roll Years | edition= 1st | publisher= Reed International Books Ltd | location= London | page= 486 | id= CN 5585}}</ref><ref name="British Hit Singles & Albums">{{cite book | first= David | last= Roberts | year= 2006 | title= British Hit Singles & Albums | edition= 19th | publisher= Guinness World Records Limited | location= London | isbn= 1-904994-10-5 | page= 282}}</ref> In June 1990, Jesus Jones appeared at the Glastonbury Festival.<ref name="NME Rock 'N' Roll Years">{{cite book | first= John | last= Tobler | year= 1992 | title= NME Rock 'N' Roll Years | edition= 1st | publisher= Reed International Books Ltd | location= London | page= 471 | id= CN 5585}}</ref>

Other singles from ''Doubt'' included "Real, Real, Real" and "International Bright Young Thing", which became two of their biggest hit singles in the UK, reaching No. 19 and No. 7 respectively in the UK Singles Chart.<ref name="British Hit Singles & Albums"/> In 1991, Jesus Jones were the only UK winners when they won the Best New Artist award at the MTV Awards.<ref name="NME Rock 'N' Roll Years 4">{{cite book | first= John | last= Tobler | year= 1992 | title= NME Rock 'N' Roll Years | edition= 1st | publisher= Reed International Books Ltd | location= London | page= 488 | id= CN 5585}}</ref> In April 1991, the British music magazine ''NME'' reported that their US tour had sold out before Jesus Jones arrived in the country.<ref name="NME Rock 'N' Roll Years 2">{{cite book | first= John | last= Tobler | year= 1992 | title= NME Rock 'N' Roll Years | edition= 1st | publisher= Reed International Books Ltd | location= London | page= 483 | id= CN 5585}}</ref>

The follow-up to ''Doubt'' was ''Perverse'' (1993), a darker and more industrial based album, which, though a big seller, did not reach the worldwide hit status of ''Doubt''. ''Perverse'' was one of the first rock albums recorded entirely digitally.<ref>{{cite web|author=Stephen Thomas Erlewine|author-link=Stephen Thomas Erlewine|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/perverse-mw0000095195 |title=Perverse – Jesus Jones | Songs, Reviews, Credits |website=AllMusic |access-date=2015-12-28}}</ref>

===''Already'' and ''London'' (1996–2003)=== After the release of the ''Perverse'' album, Jesus Jones took an extended hiatus and did not return to the recording studio until December 1996. After the recording of their fourth album, drummer Gen left the band before the album was released. They released their fourth album, titled ''Already'', in 1997 after which Jesus Jones and their record label EMI parted company. The final months of the band are chronicled in the PDF book written by Mike Edwards "Death Threats From An 8 Year Old In The Seychelles".

===Later activities (2004–present)=== With the exception of the release of the ''Culture Vulture'' EP in 2004, the band released no new material between 2001 and 2018. However, in 2010, a series of download albums were released to Amazon.co.uk. The release consisted of six different albums containing "in concert" performances at the BBC, such as London T+C 1991 and London Astoria 1993.

In 2005, the Live at the Marquee DVD was released on Secret Recordings, showing a filmed gig from 2002.

The single "Right Here, Right Now" was resurrected in 2006 as an advertising jingle for the American retailer Kmart, in an image campaign for CBS News, and in promotional advertisements for the now-defunct television channel TechTV. In 2007 Hillary Clinton used the track for her electoral campaign. Ford Motor Company used "Right Here, Right Now" in their 2010 televisual advertising campaign. A cover of the song was also recorded by New Zealand band The Feelers to use in advertising for the 2011 Rugby World Cup.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10636151|title=Jesus Jones tune massacre|date=2010-04-04|website=Nzherald.com}}</ref> In 2011 the band released ''The Collection & Other Rarities'', which included many of their B-side tracks as well as demos and rarities.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-collection-mw0002386585 |title=The Collection – Jesus Jones | Songs, Reviews, Credits |website=AllMusic |access-date=2015-12-28}}</ref>

In November 2014, EMI reissued all four of the band's albums in a special CD+DVD bundle. In addition to the original album's tracks the reissues feature radio sessions, long-deleted b-sides, rare remixes and alternate versions. The DVDs include rare live concert footage and other extras.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://jesusjones.com/news/album-reissues-with-extras-cddvd-packs |title=Album Reissues with Extras CD+DVD packs |date=9 October 2014 |website=Jesusjones.com |access-date=2015-12-28}}</ref>

In a 2015 interview for the online periodical ''Soot Magazine'' band leader Mike Edwards acknowledged that, besides re-recording some older tracks with new arrangements, he was in the process of writing material for a new album: "I am writing new stuff – I was actually writing some new material yesterday and I have loads of little bits and pieces ticking over".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sootmagazine.com/quick-dirty-jesus-jones/ |title=Quick & Dirty: Jesus Jones – Soot MagazineSoot Magazine |website=Sootmagazine.com |date=2015-12-21 |access-date=2015-12-28}}</ref>

Since the mid-2000s, Jesus Jones have continued performing live. In August 2011, the band went on a short tour (dubbed on one poster "The World's Smallest World Tour"), playing three shows in Australia before closing with a show in Japan. In November 2011, the band were due to perform in the UK in Birmingham and London, but the dates were postponed due to bass player Al Doughty being ill. They took place in January 2012. The band also toured the UK in December 2013 as part of The Wonder Stuff's Sleigh The UK tour. In March 2015, the band again returned to Australia and New Zealand for a five city tour.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://jesusjones.com/news/jesus-jones-touring-australia-and-new-zealand-in-march-2015 |title=touring Australia and New Zealand in March 2015 |date=30 October 2014 |website=Jesusjones.com |access-date=2015-12-28}}</ref>
