Handsome Jack plays Des Konings Trio in April
10-02-2020Playing a lean, hard-grooving fusion of blues, R&B, and garage rock they call "boogie soul," Handsome Jack are a rock band from Lockport, New York, a city not far from Buffalo. The band logged plenty of miles on their touring van and released a handful of self-released discs before they hooked up with the respected indie label Alive Naturalsound Records, which gave them their first nationwide release with 2014's "Do What Comes Naturally", a swaggering exercise in '70s-style blues rock. A fusion of boogie soul rock n roll that has earned the admiration of fellow rock travelers such as Chris Robinson and Neal Casal (CRB, Black Crowes), Zachary Gabbard (Buffalo Killers), and Ben McLeod of All Them Witches, who produced their new record.
On “Everything’s Gonna Be Alright” , their latest record the trio digs deeper into its soulful influences, brilliantly bringing back to life the classic sounds of Chicago, Memphis and Muscle Shoals, all rolled into one timeless record of American rock music for a new generation.
