Root Android Dev SQL vs JSON

Hi,

I'm writing an Android app that I want to use in conjunction with a band website I've developed. The website uses a SQL database to hold information such as blogs, band member information, tour dates, etc.

What would data access method make the most sense to use? I've looked at Andriod dev on tekpub and JSON data access is incredibly easy, however, would it make sense to parse the database into JSON just for Android access?

Is there a good way to hit the SQL database as is? Any advice, tutorial links, or examples would be great.

Thank You
