Rod Jones (born 3 December, 1976) is the guitarist and backing vocalist for indie rock band Idlewild.

Son of classical musician, John Pryce-Jones [http://www.northernballettheatre.co.uk/johnprycejones.html] , Jones is an energetic live performer, and his guitar playing has been described as "gritty yet melodic." [http://www.indierockresource.com/livereviews/idlewild7_23_03.htm]

The album was due for release in the autumn of 2006, however, the project is currently on hiatus and has yet to be released. Four songs can be heard on the duo's MySpace.
