~Industry Review~

“In a time that we could all use a bit more Grace, JJ Roots has given us a refreshing take on a classic. Their version of Amazing Grace still has the beautiful elements that we’re so familiar with, but I felt something different in the relaxed way Jocelyn sings the oh so familiar lines. I got the sense of someone standing and looking back at the road they’ve travelled. I felt the weight of their travels and experiences. Then came the chorus.. My chains are gone.. I’ve been set free. This gave such a joyful and thankful lift, I may have gotten a case of the goosebumps. The traditional version of Amazing Grace, though beautiful, many associate it with Sadness. This version brings Joy and Gratitude back. The arrangement, with Jeff’s soft guitar work and Strings, provides and a beautiful Stage for the lyrics to Tell the story. Songs are about stories, and this one is told very well.” - Dennis Hunt, Radio Show Host, Country 94.1 CHSJ
