Jack Perrett

About

With the Gallagher brothers still at loggerheads on their will they won’t they reunion shows, it’s thrilling when a new act channels the spirit of Britpop’s golden era yet isn’t afraid to include references to the more contemporary singer songwriters such as Jake Bugg/Jack Garrett/Kate Tempest et al within his music. Jack Perrett is one such new voice, youthful, bold, confident and unashamedly populist in his outlook and his songwriting.

Jack’s debut EP ‘What You Saying?’ has gathered critical support across the UK as well as gaining plays in American and Australia. A side ‘Me And You’ was featured on ITV1’s This Morning television programme, whilst well known arbiter of all things cool and Welsh, Dave Owens included another of the EP tracks, ‘Drunk And Stoned’ in his Wales Online ‘Top 100 welsh songs of 2016’ playlist. Jack capped off a successful 2016 when he was voted into the Final 6 of Project: Aloft Star. In the final Jack performed in front music industry professionals including BBC Radio DJ’s Huw Stephens and Sian Anderson and Spector frontman Fred Macpherson. Throughout 2016, Jack performed in venues and festivals all over the UK including London, Cardiff, Bristol and Manchester supporting bands such as Judas, Jaws and Badfinger. Under the production guidance of Estrons producer Steffan Pringle, Jack has recorded new no holds barred, bombastic terrace anthems which are set for release early this year.

Airplay includes ITV1, BBC Intro Wales, BBC Radio Wales, Nation Radio, GTFM, MonFM, Morphe Radio, Radio Kaos Caribou, Radio Cardiff and many more community radio stations.

“I really enjoyed that, it’s a catchy song. I was singing along by the end of that. (Huw Stephens, BBC Radio 1)

“The influences are there to hear, especially in Jack’s voice, well done sir” (Adam Walton, BBC Radio Wales)

“Close your eyes and think back to 1994 and the days of jangly Indie guitar music. The LA’s and Oasis would be proud to call this track their own. Jacks vocal is perfectly suited to the style of the song and it screams attitude. I can see this lad having a real bright future”, (David Pottinger, Move on up blog).

“Jack sings as if he already has six albums, three BRIT awards, two Grammys and an Ivor Novello under his belt and that confidence exudes throughout What You Saying?, leaving you shaken and hungry for more”, (Josh Knapman, South Wales Argus).
