JACKED is a band that plays to have fun and it comes across in every show. These formidable musicians play danceable rock favorites from the 70's, 80's, 90's and today hits with unabashed enthusiasm and a stage presence unlike any bar band you have ever seen. It's been said often that these guys are having a little too much fun up there and well... it's true.
JACKED doesn't try to replicate the rock covers they play as much as interpret them. There are no weak links in JACKED, only strong performers with an extreme love of music. Starting their musical training at three years old, playing up to 250 nights per year and having a minimum of 15 years performing live per member is just a small part of why JACKED stands out musically. JACKED brings quality music, an entertaining stage presence and a child-like enthusiasm to every performance.
And if you think they look familiar it's because these guys have all played for years in bars, clubs and arenas with bands such as Bent, Folklords, LED, Halo, Shattered Image, Soviet Reunion, Bleu Inc, Summer Rain, On The Edge, Free Spirit, Buffalo Rose, Dirty Boogie Band, Trick Whisper, Hopie's Turtle, No Tour Intended as well as Tommy V and the Soul Patrol.
The members of JACKED have wrote and recorded original music for independent CD release as well movie soundtracks, performed on live television and played stages of all shapes and sizes. The list of national recording acts the members of JACKED have opened up for include April Wine, Cheap Trick, Limited Warranty, Nazareth, Nelson, Styx and Pat Travers in venues such as the Grandma�s Marathon Big Top Tent, Cabooze, Duluth Arena, Fargodome, Fine Line Music Cafe, First Avenue, Mirage, Moondance Festival, Nor Shor Theatre, Rockin' the Hills in ND.
If your looking for a bar band that knows how to have fun, JACKED is your band. Every song is danceable, all night, every night. JACKED is there to have fun and it shows at every show.
And as always, a huge thank you to everyone who comes out to see JACKED. We love all the dancers as well as those who just sit back and enjoy the tunes. Thanks, and we hope to see (and hear) you soon!!!
