Hailing from Dirty Jersey (the Garden State or just plain New Jersey), Justpassingthru boasts four multi-talented musicians (Mooki, Joe Gorgolione, Ron Leejack and Eli Endres) whose music and passionate, engaging live performance (recently being compared to that of early Disturbed) will leave your heart touched and your soul rocking! No doubt you'll be coming back for more! The bands's modern rock version of Praise Adonai has rocked the CRW Indie Rock charts at #3 for 6 months and is still radio play and a ton listener response (also climbing the Indie CHR as well as the Signature Rock charts). Recently, Justpassingthru accepted the 2008 Momentum Award for ROCK ARTIST OF THE YEAR, filmed for a FUSE TV reality show, and released an exclusive Free Song made possible by MICROSOFT!

** Reality show is to be like "Wife Swap" but swapping lead singers of bands. Justpassingthru was the "Christian Rock" band and the other band was a "Porn Rock" band -- basically the lead singer was a stripper... More about GOD's story in this at... www.TruLoveRocks.com ... This site tells the CRAZY story of events that transpired. OVERTAKE ME is the song we performed -- check it out!**

For several years the boys of Justpassingthru have performed concerts, youth events, rallies and fundraisers, evolving from a local garage band into a mature, modern rock group . A local paper wrote JPT is one of the best kept secrets in the NY metro music scene. In 2008, the guys rocked out with Switchfoot at Rutgers University in front of 4,000 fans at Spring Blaze. In 2007, New York's Christian music station Star 99.1 invited them to be a part of their Autumn Blaze event at Continental Airlines Arena and a two-time Dove Award winning producer helped them to complete their latest release Call Me Red. The secret is out - and the boys of Justpassingthru have been thrown into a mysterious series of events that has everyone on edge anticipating what will happen next.

Justpassingthru's loyal fan base continues to grow in the tri-state area and beyond as they have been traveling and performing up and down the east coast and southern states. Audiences love their style: mainstream rock with pop sensibility and occasional hints of classic rock, funk & rap. Think Daughtry, P.O.D., Audioslave, Matchbox Twenty, Stone Temple Pilots, TobyMac, Fuel...and think again.

Their latest release Call Me Red is a figurative analogy based on the concept of the literary work, The Scarlet Letter. This classic Nathaniel Hawthorne novel is a well-known story. Lead singer, Mooki explains "The truth is that every human being who has graced the planet deserves a 'Scarlet Letter' because none of us are perfect and are all on the same journey. The songs written on this release are driven by the needs, hurts, longings and joys in the lives of people and relationships around us. We hope to communicate hope, encouragement and inspiration to everyone that hears them." Guitarist Joey Dekker adds "We are really proud of the songwriting and overall sound of Call Me Red and are excited to perform these songs for audiences across the country."

The message woven throughout the songs of Call Me Red begs the intimate question 'What is your letter?'. Mooki explains "Call Me Red is an expression that I am a real person in need of God's grace. This realization changes all behavior, it drops chains and guilt and unleashes tangible expressions of love."

Justpassingthru wants to impact their growing audiences with this powerful truth and its captivating music. Their sound and personalities are accessible to all people, regardless of age, circumstances, or where they are in their own personal journeys.

In late 2007, Justpassingthru was featured on EMI's artist discovery site, HearItFirst.com, as the Top 5 Rated Artist for 2-1/2 weeks straight alongside Chris Tomlin, Third Day, Mandisa, Krystal Meyers, BarlowGirl, Rush of Fools, David Crowder* Band.

Justpassingthru has shared the stage with a number of today's top artists including Switchfoot, TobyMAC, Mandisa (of American Idol fame), Sanctus Real, Britt Nicole, Luna Halo, Spoken, The Wrecking and many more
