From country, the group borrows potent pedal steel guitar and a penchant for relationships gone bad. From the group's alternative rock background,
The Jrs. infuse a dry lyrical wit and a live-wire, on-the-edge energy. Fans of
Gram Parsons' and Michael Nesmith's harmonious, lyrical style will appreciate "What A Great Day" and "(You Didn't Leave Me Baby You Just) Beat Me To The Door." Just The Other Day manages to combine guitar feedback and a reference to Johnny Rotten with a hoedown jig. ~ Roch Parisien
