***AI is FIRM NO - ALL MUSIC WRITTEN, ARRANGED AND PERFORMED BY ©Crackerjack**

Hi, I am Jon, my music name is ©Crackerjack. Having re-read my own bio, which I haven’t done for some time, I realised how self-important it sounded!! I wish I was  a dynamic lead, rhythm, and bass guitarist whose sound is deeply rooted in blues-infused hard rock. 

The latter of this sentence is at least true in terms of styles – although I do also love metal and power sludge (Pantera), some classical, blues, Jazz/funk, Gangsta Rap.  I also do play lead, rhythm and bass, write, arrange and perform all the music and vocals. 

The drums are programmed on my Boss BR80 Micro Digital recorder; however I am planning on teaching myself how to play these. I also mix down and produce all my music.

My music era growing up was late 80s- mid/late 90’s.  Huge influences for me were early GNR, especially Slash, who is the reason I fell in love with the Les Paul and playing lead; Chris Cornell, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Black Crows, ACDC, STP, Faith No More, Gary Moore, ZZ Top – the list goes on, and all over the place!

Whilst I am a hard rock guy, I do venture into more metal as some of my tracks like The Gringo, Corrupt, Insidious, The Nomad may showcase. I also have 3 or so songs written which will be folk/country, my softer side, but need to buy a new acoustic before I record these.

I have released probably 60 singles and 5 track EP called Life Stories, which is what it says on the tin. 

The songs cover addiction - Husk' to ballads  'A Love Untold’ and a cheeky little interlude of the Sabbath variety with my good mate Somewhere 77’ supplying the bongo beat.

Happy to colab where time allows in between being a dad, work, dad, work, dad!!!

Howdy Friends,

This is somewhere to put tunes when other tracks are getting digested 🤘🏽A digestion period is something I never give people so I think it's time to try it. I feel when collaborating with large groups of musicians my routine of daily uploads takes the shine off those shares so this profile was born from wanting to deliver that period but still fullful my desire to share everything as it comes to light. In the short term his will likely lessen my play count which I don't mind because this is about making TBD bigger and more financially successful in the future so experimenting with presentation should be worth it.  I think this should show an evolution to TBD's organic following better and I won't be bombarding everyone with a confusing amount of material like currently happens on the main account.
This also expands my desire to share more detail on the process and teach it more. Because I know I'm not pushing everything to everyone it will feel a bit better sharing thoughts and long jams here and will still be a door open for whoever might want to connect to that. I'll follow back genuine people here but I think I will avoid seeking people out from this page as again that should give a better outline of the reality of my music and how organic it is actually becoming for people and remove a bit of the SoundCloud routine from the mix. All going well I can upgrade this profile to artist pro and maybe endeavour to cover a sub with it and move passed the 120min limit of a free profile. Rock and Real to everyone.

Love ya all,

Carl
