The Jack Art Band Jack Art Paris The Jack Art Band reimagines the ‘70s classic rock sound for a modern audience with mighty arrangements of bold melodies and inventive rhythms accompanied by thoughtful lyrics about relationships, self-discovery and life’s adventures. Helmed by versatile multi-instrumentalist, singer and elegant songwriter Jack Art (acoustic and electric guitar, lead vocals), the band’s songs are like short films that tell stories about redemption, evolution, transformation and hope, punctuated by memorable guitar hooks and rich keyboard passages. Comprised of its leader and a four-person cast of supporting musicians with many years’ experience playing in genres ranging from classical and jazz, to country, punk and hard rock, the quintet carries on the esteemed tradition established by rock and folk rock powerhouses including Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Eric Clapton, Meatloaf, Neil Young, Mink de Ville and Lou Reed. The Jack Art Band is fortified by the warm, soulful voice of its leader and harnesses its commanding stage presence and dynamic chemistry to explore the many nuances of music driven by electric and acoustic guitar and piano. The group turns out intimate, emotionally-charged studio recordings that capture the thrill and intensity of their live performances. The seed for The Jack Art Band was planted when its namesake was searching for a way to breathe new life into his solo material. After playing in a variety of London- and Paris-based rock outfits in the 1990s and early-mid 2000s, including the power trio DUST, Jack Art settled in his home city of Paris with his heart set on a new creative adventure. A prolific, imaginative and meticulous songwriter, he felt rejuvenated as his children began to discover their own connection to music and he began to build up a vast catalogue of new songs while seeking out talented local artists to join the project. In early 2015, he found a drummer (Jacques Plier), bassist (Lionel Lefebvre) and guitarist (Pierre Lotteau) that clicked with his vision and eventually invited his son, Pablo to round out the lineup on keyboards. Based in Paris, The Jack Art Band is now finishing work on two fresh singles to be released in the coming months. The song “Better Man” will be released in May 2015, with “Walking A Thin Line” to follow in the fall. The band will be playing Paris’ Fête de la Musique in late June, a series of other local shows in the fall and winter and shows throughout Europe and beyond beginning early next year. The Jack Art Band is also hard at work in the studio on a full-length debut album, which will be available in 2016.
