Hear Bubba The Love Sponge discuss When Moonshine And Dynamite Collide on his radio show in the clip below:

To celebrate the release of the new album, Jackyl frontman Jesse James Dupree, guitarist Jeff Worley, bassist Roman Glick and drummer Chris Worley have been on a promotional tour partnering up with radio stations in cities across the south and Midwest. The band has targeted some of their favorite strip clubs in which to throw a series of CD release parties that are doubling as on-location video shoots for 'She's Not A Drug'.

Dupree had this to say, “From all of the phone calls that we made to the people that pre-ordered When Moonshine And Dynamite Collide, and through these 12 dates of CD release partyies that Radio stations up though the Midwest have thrown us and now seeing the first week chart numbers, the obvious is that people are ready to ROCK!!!!!! PUH-POW!”

Jackyl's legacy of its wild, untamed and uncouth approach to rock 'n' roll is well established. The band hit the scene and immediately began firing off rock radio hits like 'Down On Me', 'When Will It Rain', 'I Stand Alone', and most notably, 'The Lumberjack'. during which Dupree performs a chain-saw solo. The introduction of Jackyl's fifth instrument on album and in concert quickly became one of the band's many trademarks as the group blazed a path to infamy, sharing the stage with AEROSMITH, KISS, ZZ TOP, TED NUGENT and DAMN YANKEES and working with industry heavyweights such as John Kalodner. AC/DC's Brian Johnson would go on to lend his vocals to the track 'Locked And Loaded' which still stands as his only contribution outside of AC/DC recordings.

The band has earned two Guinness Book of World Records citations and the designation "The Hardest Working Band in Rock 'N' Roll" for performing 100 shows in 50 days as well as 21 shows in 24 hours. Staying true to their working band roots, Jackyl is a staple on the summer festival circuit and maintains their commitment to every show being the sonic equivalent to a man being shot out of a cannon. Jackyl was recently featured on the hit TruTV show Full Throttle Saloon, which was created and executive produced by Jesse James Dupree, and the band will be headlining an extensive tour through 2010 in support of - When Moonshine And Dynamite Collide.
