Jack writes and records all the instruments and vocals for his music. His premise is to keep the music as simple as possible, while conveying the message and emotional content as strong and purposeful. This is formula which has succeeded in making Jack's music very popular to a wide range of listeners. Jack is very hard to label. The album Drama is considered "power pop, alternative rock, modern rock, etc". There are a lot of different elements and influences in Jack's music, but to really boil it down, one could say that Jack13 is blues-based alternative rock. Jack plays a lot of 60's and 70's cover songs as well as his own music in his live shows. The covers range from Jimi Hendrix to the Kinks. In between playing live shows, Jack is writing new material for his next album, expected to be released sometime next year. This album will have more of a blues vibe that Drama, but will still be considered alternative. It promises to be distinctly Jack13, and will show a bit more of Jack's versatility. We as jack13.com have heard a couple of songs Jack is working on...and they freakin' rock!! To check out Jack13's current album Drama, click on the link to the Internet super music store, CDBaby.com.
