Maybe I'm just super critical but I've seen tons of BJ cover acts and never walked away with any real satisfaction. Even that cover act Bounce sounds off to me... The band is great , the singer is okay but his accent throws me off... I think he'd be great covering someone else, I just don't know who...
I'm with you on this one. Bounce are a good band, the singer is a good to great singer, but it just doesn't sound (anywhere near) like Jon singing. The accent is different, and he has something to his voice that would fit other bands/styles better, I guess. Still, good effort and maybe I'll see them live sometime
