Award-winning Liverpool-based songwriter John Jenkins released his latest album Restless Hearts on July 4th, 2025. Since its debut, the collection has garnered widespread acclaim for its emotional depth, lyrical craftsmanship, and timeless Americana spirit.  
But the story doesn’t end there.
💡 A Bold Creative Twist
In the lead-up to the release, John conceived a unique companion project: an alternative version of Restless Hearts, featuring each of the 12 original tracks reimagined by other artists. Initially hesitant—unsure if anyone would be interested in covering his songs—John was encouraged by respected songwriter Jim Pearson, who not only endorsed the idea but offered to record a cover himself.
Word spread quickly across social media, and what began as a quiet experiment evolved into a grassroots celebration of collaboration. Artists from across genres stepped forward, each bringing their own interpretation—some professionally produced, others raw and intimate. Styles ranged from stripped-back acoustic to full-band arrangements, with several tracks receiving multiple covers in contrasting styles.
As a heartfelt thank-you to the artists and fans, John is making the full Too Many Roads album available as a free digital download. For those who prefer a physical keepsake, a limited run of 30 CDs is available for £10, including postage.
All proceeds will support the West Kirby Friday Night Musical Group, which recently relocated from the West Kirby Arts Centre to St Bridget’s Community Hall. Funds raised will help cover equipment upgrades and venue costs, ensuring the group continues to thrive in its new home.
