Robert Jon & The Wreck Double Down on Grit and Conviction with New Single “Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is”

Written with a directness that leaves no room for half-measures, “Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is” calls out talk without follow-through and the gap between what people say and what they actually do. It’s a straight-ahead, no-frills rocker that cuts through the noise, pushing the idea that intention only matters once it’s backed by action. From the opening blast, the song wastes no time setting its tone – loud, direct, and unapologetic.

As guitarist Henry James explains, the track comes from years of living inside the grind of the music world, where belief and commitment get tested constantly. Lines like “You say you’re ready, but you’re still standing still” and “If you want it bad enough, prove it now” land like a challenge, reflecting a mindset shaped by the road, the work, and the moments where talk stops meaning anything without effort behind it. “As we get more invested in the business, politics, and hustle of this life, it can become difficult to feel connected to the initial pureness and excitement of playing music that made us fall in love with it as children and teenagers,” James shares.

Since forming in 2011, Robert Jon & The Wreck – Robert Jon Burrison (vocals, guitar), Henry James (lead guitar, vocals), Andrew Espantman (drums, vocals), Warren Murrel (bass), and Jake Abernathie (keys) – have earned a global following by pairing sharp, story-driven songwriting with a road-tested live show that thrives on chemistry and intensity. Recent months have seen the band release a steady run of singles, join Samantha Fish for a high-profile West Coast tour, and expand their reach across festivals and headline dates alike.

With “Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is” now out in the world, the band turns its attention fully to the upcoming Spring U.S. tour, which launches February 20 in Bonita Springs, Florida. The run stretches through the Southeast, Midwest, and Plains, including shows with special guest Sam Morrow and select dates opening for the Eric Gales Band, before wrapping in April with major appearances at Hogs For A Cause and Sound Wave Beach Weekend.
