Just good old southern beach rock. Get Ready For The Truetones was released in 2006 with a fresh new sound that included killer tracks such as Ooh Girl Don't Stop (also recorded by The Craig Woolard Band), Don't Blame Me (also recorded by Part Time Party Time Band), One Sure Way, Everlasting Love and the one I felt had the right groove to go high on the Beach charts, the highly shaggable No Doubt, which is still in my Internet radio station rotation. Nine of the eleven tunes on the album were originals written by Billy and Jack, but the two covers they chose to do were also truly outstanding – Never Gonna Be Alone Anymore and People Get Ready!

FLORENCE, S.C. -- Brothers Billy and Jackie Jeffords, longtime Florence businessmen, have been involved with music all their lives. Their passion for music and songwriting has brought accolades their way since their early teenage years. Together they have written more than 400 songs, more than 100 of which have been published. In 2005 Dip Ferrell (Billy) and the Truetones was formed primarily to record Billy and Jackie’s original songs. However, the brothers seemed to “stumble into beach music” as someone mentioned to Billy that one of their songs was getting a lot of air time and they didn’t know it until that song was nominated for song of the year.

“We never really considered ourselves to be beach music players -- we initially wrote James Taylor-like songs and rhythm and blues.” Billy Jeffords said. “We were trying to write and produce songs and hope that a big name would pick up a song or two. Most of our success, if you want to call it that, has been though the rhythm and blues section of beach music.”
