Jadi Norris: NEWS & VIDEO!

LIVE @ The Maverick

I would like to thank all of the venues we entertained through 2008 and wish you prosperity for the future.
The 2009 calendar will start to fill up quick so don't hesitate to reserve The Jadi Norris Band for your Club, Event or Private function.
The Jadi Norris Band is alive and kicking with two new additions to our rhythm section. Erik Truelove (Drums) Aaron Gonzales (Bass Guitar).

I am glad to say that this news is as opposite as my last posting as can be. I am proud to announce that God has blessed me and my family with a beautiful, tiny perfect little girl. In light of the tribulations of the last few weeks she is even more precious and appreciated.
Thank you God, you are loving and gracious and generous beyond all understanding. I am also thankful to God for each and every one of you who have been my friends, fans, and family. Sitting quietly in a hospital waiting gives one time to contemplate things that are admittedly overlooked; namely the individuals who color our lives and minister to souls without even being aware of their devine assignment.
Today, I thank God for each and everyone of you-your friendship and love are appreciated beyond measure.
Peace, Love, and Understanding to you All
Humbly,
Jadi

Press Release 11/24/05:
Jadi Norris Overdrive competed in the final level of competition to win the Budweiser True Music Challenge. Competeing against four other bands, including rock, metal, latin, and alternative, country music prevailed! Jadi and band will be sponsored by Budweiser Beer and will be featured on Budweiser.com. Jadi would like to say sincere "thanks" to Golden Eagle Distributing, Anheuser-Busch, City Limits nightclub, Cal Productions, and Ms. Kiri Gragg. THIS BUD'S FOR YOU!

Jadi Norris Overdrive took FIRST PLACE in the first round of the 2005 BUD TRUE MUSIC SHOOTOUT at City Limits on November 9, 2005. Four great bands played, but when the judges made their decision, Jadi and the guys were crowned the BEST OF THE BEST. A picture of the beautiful trophy guitar is in the photos section. The FINALS are NOVEMBER 23rd, 2005 at CITY LIMITS(Tanque Verde Loop Rd-Tucson, AZ). If you are in the area, please come out and support JNO in the finals-the guys could walk away with a one year BUDWEISER SPONSORSHIP and earn the right to be THE OFFICIAL BUDWEISER TRUE MUSIC BAND of SOUTHERN ARIZONA! Way to go, Jadi. Way to go guys!

Well, the CD is still in the works. Jadi is determined that this one be the best one yet, so it is taking more time than the last two. Also, Jadi had to sit out a week due to a severly seperated shoulder from being too zealous on the softball field! He's having surgery to repair the shoulder on October 13, 2005.
Back to the CD: Jadi is putting the finishing touches on it and plans to have it "in the can" by the end of October. Thanks for being so patient-it will be worth the wait!

The legendary Maverick, King of Clubs, will be celebrating its' Grand Opening September 8th. Jadi Norris Overdrive will be entertaining the masses that Thursday night and every Thursday thereafter. Don't miss this party! Check back soon for more details...

Jadi is presently recording his third CD at LUNA Studios in Tucson, AZ. Renowned guitarist and engineer George Nardo is manning the board and producing. This CD promises without a doubt the most exciting and unforgettable music yet from Jadi Norris. The CD is scheduled for release in mid-August of 2005. It will be available on this site.

I am happy to announce that I became a new uncle on March 13, 2005. My beautiful little sister Jana Cochran gave birth to her second son, Justin Cochran around 10 pm on the 13th. She and her husband Neal, a phenomenal semi-pro quarterback for the Carolina Storm, are tired but elated. Their first child, Nolan, is as proud as he can be and so am I.
I love you, lil' sis, and SEND PICTURES!

I've been approached by dozens of you who have asked "where have you been for the last year or so?"
Well, truth is, I had been suffering tremendous pain and other problems as the result of a car accident I had a while ago. Having been raised by a real southern "MAN's MAN" I tried to tough it out and ignore the pain and the constant headaches. But when my hands and arms began to lose feeling I knew something was really wrong. Anyway, it was uncovered in MRI's and other REALLY PAINFUL procedures that I had some fractures in my neck and a couple of ruptured discs. I decided that to insure my wife and children's well being that I had to relocate to North Carolina to be close to my parents and siblings while I recoverd from the inevitable spinal surgery.
I had some vertebrae fused in my cervical spine as well as having spurs and bone fragments removed from my spinal cord. Needless to say, recovery was not terribly easy or quick and I didn't play or sing for several months. To be honest, I thought that my music days were over . This experience made me sympathize with all those people out there who are TRULY sick and/or handicapped. I had HUNDREDS of injections and dozens of medications that affected me in various ways- some good, some bad. Those people that live every day with paralysis or chronic problems are remarkably courageous-it's the touughest thing I've ever done, and my problems were small compared to some of the children, parents, and other folks I met during rehab and therapy. Anyway, I was (and still am) blessed with a wonderful loving wife and family that stuck it out and refused to let me give up even when I wanted to. I wanted to thank all of you who cared enough to write and call during this time-you helped me to re-discover my faith in God and man and inspired me to get back to doing what I love the best-which is play and sing for all of you who listen. I realize now more than ever that it is a real privilege to do what I do and even more of a privilege to have you come and enjoy the music.
Once again, thank you and God Bless you-and BUCKLE UP!
