Background notes
Archive material and source history
Not The Joneses formed in Los Angeles in the late 1990s, with Riley Hayes as the vocalist and songwriter. Their debut album, 'Ashes to Ashes', came out in 2003, and the title track became a radio hit. The band released three more albums after that: 'The Devil Inside' in 2006, 'Redemption' in 2009, and 'Phoenix Rising' in 2012.
Their music often dealt with themes like loss and self-discovery, and 'Ashes to Ashes' in particular resonated with listeners for its raw emotional feel. The band faced some challenges early on, including lineup changes and financial struggles, but they built a following through their live shows and persistent work.
This contributed to their reputation as a rebellious rock act, though the specifics around arrests or industry conflicts aren't well-documented in reliable sources.
Over their career, Not The Joneses maintained a sound that mixed introspective lyrics with energetic rock, evolving across their albums without drastically shifting their core style. They haven't released new music in recent years, but 'Ashes to Ashes' remains their most recognized song.
