TOP TEN FACTS ABOUT THE JOELENES

In January 2007 they made the front page of the Tamworth Country Music Festival Tourist Edition after receiving rave write-ups during their tour.
During August The Joelenes are recording a full-length album to be released in early 2008.
The Joelenes go through a minimum of 20 teabags per rehearsal.
The Joelenes have been featured in The Age, The Daily Advertiser, The Post (Newcastle) and the Northern Daily Leader (Tamworth).
The band's inspiration comes from the holy trinity (Elvis, Johnny Cash and Dolly).
When on tour, The Joelenes travel in one luxury liner tour bus and never a cuss word is spoken.
At least 73 people have approached The Joelenes' drummer asking if he's Bernard Fanning (he refuses to confirm or deny).
If transcribed, Joelene on Lead Vocals and Joelene on Harp have enough cowpoke philosophy to cover the MCG.
The Joelenes have been described as "a versatile mob". Their diversity comes from having three songwriters in the group.
There's usually a special guest or two sitting-in (anything from banjo to didgeridoo).
