Jason Robert Wood (21 January 1972 – 20 February 2010) was a British comedian. He was a regular performer at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, he was best known for his comic musical impersonations of performers including Cher and Morrissey. He frequently headlined comedy clubs.
Wood was born in Luton, and attended Icknield High School. In 2004, he took part in the first series of Strictly Come Dancing. He and his partner, professional dancer Kylie Jones, were the first to leave the competition. He was a contestant on the second series of The Underdog Show.
Wood was gay. His show "My Anus Horribilis," its name a play on the Queen's 1992 "Annus Horribilis" Christmas message, was about how "[The Christian right is] pushing the country backwards, and I wanted to point that out. It’s insane when they’re quoting Leviticus to outlaw gay sex, yet most people, who have never read the Bible, won’t know that book also threatens punishment for people who wear shirts of mixed fibre." His Fringe show in 2006 attracted a damning one-star review by The Scotsman newspaper. He referred to this on subsequent posters, quoting, "A star – The Scotsman".

It Dies Today was formed in August 2001 in Buffalo, New York and was originally composed of vocalist Nicholas Brooks, guitarist Chris Cappelli, and guitarist Steve Lemke (who now plays bass). During their formation, most of the band members were only 16 years old. Their initial release was a three-track demo titled Let the Angels Whisper Your Name, recorded in late 2001. The following year, It Dies Today released an EP titled Forever Scorned, which led to the band touring the U.S. with artists such as Between the Buried and Me and Alexisonfire.
I'm a fly by night stealer, a folk singing junkie I get high when I can't find my way I heard Colorado is good to my kind Maybe I'll go there someday Well my rhymes are getting tired and my allusions are worn I'm a preacher with nothing to say So talk to me Dylan, show me a sign Before I get carried away Chorus: Angels and highways and old mountain songs The mandolin plays and the tremolo's long Cloudy next mornings crawl under the night's parade It's a hell of a ride, this wild eyed serenade Heroes and villains, black and while ramblers Sinners they're just trying to hide Movers and shakers who talk too damn loud When I just want to stop for the night (Chorus) Melodies linger off in the distance And mix with those words in my head The phone is still ringing, why won't she answer It must have been something I said
