Born in the early mid 90's...Sad Jack took the local rock circuit by storm, combining the songwriting talents of Andrew Horth (And his cool virtuoso guitar playing), unique powerful vocals of Nick Dodd, thumping (and some how laid back at the same time) bass of Neal Newbrook and solid drum backline of Nick Haynes.

Their explosive live performances often fuelled by Budweiser saw them rock venues such as JB's in Dudley (Host to many household names) , and a host of local pubs and clubs in the Shropshire and West Midlands area. Sad Jack were a band just waiting to happen, three succesful studio demo recordings....a live recording used for demo purposes...and a loyal following...then it was over...

...now - in the summer of 2011, after over 10 years...Andrew, Neal and Nick have reunited for the Bridgnorth Music Festival for an acoustic gig.

Who knows what will happen next...one thing is for sure, Sad Jack are back...Sad Jack will rock you...

Formed in Kingston 2011, Carlito are Singer Jack Dodd, Guitarist Tommy Cruickshanks, Bassist Laurence Stevens, Drummer Pearl Mabarutse, and Keys player Juan Carlos Vasquez. 
Cousins Jack Dodd and Laurence Stevens moved to London to start a band. In a night club queue they met guitarist Tommy Cruickshanks. Impressed at first by his dress sense, they immediately bonded over a mutual dislike of doormen and steep entry fees, whilst also finding a common passion for the Stones (Roses and Rolling) and 60’s jangly-guitar pop. Before long, a jam including drummer Pearl Mabarutse was organised. After one electrifying rehearsal the basis of the band was formed.  In two years of relentless gigging, Carlito have built up a steady fan base and a reputation for combining raw sounding indie-rock with high energy shows. The band have since attracted management, sponsorship with mod clothing company Merc, support with Palma Violets and a headline slot at the infamous Discovery 2 night in Kensington. With keyboardist Juan Carlos Vasquez now on board, the music has become richer, more layered and intricate.
