.
Jamie McLean Band have announced the release of four brand new EPs in 2011.

The first EP entitled Time Of My Life is due out today, March 3rd and features the core electric trio � Jamie McLean (vocals, lead guitars), Ben Mars (bass) and Brian Griffin (drums) � pumping out their brand of original roots, rock n' roll, country and swampy soul.

Jamie McLean commented, ""We really wanted to find a way to get our fans more music more often. I wanted to steer clear of a typical album release cycle where we only put out an album every couple of years. We are excited to stretch ourselves musically and I think it's a great way to get the most amount of new music possible to our fans."

In celebration of the release of the first EP, the Jamie McLean Band will play a set on release date (March 3rd) in New York City at a party sponsored by John Varvatos at his iconic store. The band will be hitting the road with more tour dates around the country. Please see below for the Jamie McLean Band's upcoming U.S. itinerary.
