Green River Ordinance is made up of five band members, brothers Geoff and Jamey Ice, providing the bass and guitar, respectively; Josh Jenkins, who brings the vocals, guitar, and piano; Joshua Wilkerson on the guitar; and Denton Hunker, who plays the drums. The original GRO was formed by the Ice brothers, who were influenced with music their entire lives, especially from their parents. The other three boys who now make up the group were also musically inclined from a young age. The band formed in Ft. Worth, Texas. When all five of them got together and combined their songwriting abilities, they found that they each made equally important contributions. Their first EP was recorded in their church’s basement, and by the time of its release, their fan base was expanding quickly.
They were soon recognized as The Best New Band of 2003, by Fort Worth Weekly, and Best Live Band in the following year. At the Fort Worth Music Awards in 2006, they reeled in three more awards: Rock Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Artist of the Year; and in 2008 won another Artist of the Year award. Their latest album, Out of My Hands, was released in February of 2009, and they continue to impress. You may have recently heard their song, Come On, on radio stations. Either way, definitely a band to check out.
