Frantic Jack are one the most exciting new bands to emerge from Ireland in recent years. With influences ranging from Matchbox20 to Dave Matthews Band, they have seamlessly molded their own unique sound and captured the attention of audiences both at home and abroad.

The band’s debut album "Independence" received high praise from popular music magazine Hot Press amongst others and was tipped as one of the best Irish records of 2010. The album boasts two Top 20 singles in "Firefly" (which was also 2fm's single of the week) and "Free" as well as the bands first Top 10 single "Hold On" which charted at No.9 on first week of release.

To date Frantic Jack have played in some of the Irelands biggest venues such as the Olympia Theatre, The RDS and many more as well recently headlined at the 2013 Alcheringa Music Festival in India where they played to a crowd of over 10,000.Their live shows have become known for being highly energetic, tight and entertaining. Along the way they have performed on the same bill as the The Saw Doctors, Ash, Delorentos, Duke Special, Imelda May, Bressie, The Undertones and many more.

Two national tours later and the bands 2nd studio album is here! "Last One To Leave"has been praised as a more defined look at the bands anthemic rock style. The lead single from the album was "Soar" and this is now set to be followed by the March 29th 2013 release of "Living Proof.
