Jody Has A Hitlist were a pop punk band from Dublin, Ireland. They formed in April 2009, from previous bands such as Steer Clear (Pádraig McAlister, Conor Ebbs) and The Upgrades (Kelan O'Reilly), and have since performed alongside artists such as Lostprophets, The Used and Kids In Glass Houses. In 2010, they were nominated for the Most Promising New Artist award at the Meteor Awards.
Jody Has A Hitlist formed in April 2009, following the break-up of the members' previous bands (Steer Clear, The Upgrades). The initial line-up consisted of Pádraig McAlister, Conor Ebbs, Kelan O'Reilly, Francis McDonnell and Des Foley. Due to educational commitments, Des Foley was later replaced by Jason (Jay) Boland. On 30 June 2009, the band played their first show supporting Metro Station at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin, shortly after releasing their 3-track, self-titled EP in May of that year. In October, they also supported General Fiasco at the Ulster Hall in Belfast. In November 2009, the band released a single, entitled You Used To Be Fun and travelled to the UK to record their second EP with Matt O'Grady. The title of the EP was revealed as Boy Caught Envy and it was released in July 2010. During the course of the year, music videos were recorded for the tracks Just Over A Year and Boy Caught Envy. Later in the year, Ben Hogan replaced Jason Boland as the lead guitarist when he left to join Kodaline.
On 4 April 2011, Jody Has A Hitlist released their new 6-track EP, Choose Your Battles. The recording of the EP took place at Longwave Studios. After its release, the band toured extensively, including acting as main support on Yashin's UK tour. A music video for the track Through It All was released on 10 August 2011.
