Hey! Who are we speaking with and what do you do in JackJackJack?
Hey there. You’re speaking with Maggie and I rap and sing for JackJackJack. I love to rhyme, I do it all the time. I’ll stop that now.
As a band who can only be described as ‘hip-funk-rock-hop’, you’ve seamlessly melded your sound together using many genres. Who would you say is your biggest musical influences from each genre?
All our influences are in a big melting pot of so many different artists and sounds making it difficult pinpoint an influence from each genre. We are often told that Rage Against the Machine and Red Hot Chili Peppers with an additional hip hop and funk element are our most comparable bands.
In five adjectives, how would you describe your sound?
Layered. Solid. Epic. Different. Saxy.
You’ve got some killer gigs coming up – supporting Balkan Beat Box at Prince Bandroom in March and at the Come Together Music & Arts Festival. What can we expect from these shows?
We are ridiculously excited to be part of these shows, and as always you can expect high energy, fun and a sweaty room. We’ve been hard writing with the new lineup and are super excited to be testing out a few new tunes to see how they are received.
Check out JACKJACKJACK when they support Balkan Beat Box on Thursday March 12 at The Prince Bandroom, and at the Come Together Music & Arts Festival on Saturday June 7.
