History
The Freddy Jones Band began in South Bend, Indiana while Marty Lloyd and Wayne Healy were college students. They moved to Chicago where they met Simon Horrocks and Jim and Rob Bonaccorsi, with whom they formed The Freddy Jones Band. Their self-titled debut was released independently and then by Capricorn Records followed by Waiting for the Night (1993), Lucid (1994), and North Ave. Wake-Up Call (1995). In 1998, bassist Jim Bonaccorsi and guitar/vocalist Rob Bonaccorsi left the band and were replaced by bassist Mark Murphy.
