This self released, self funded, working class lad from Newport has gone viral with music videos, and received playlist at Radio X. Jack’s confirmed to play at Off the Record in Manchester in November as well as a hometown show in Newport.
“During my career I have had a passion for discovering new talent. Over the years I have given first sessions to The Smiths, Primal Scream, Amy Winehouse and many more. I get a buzz and a tingle when I hear something special. That’s what happened when I heard Jack Perrett. Jack is a great singer songwriter who I instantly booked for my show on BBC Radio Wales. His gift was even more obvious during that first session alongside his loveable personality”. (Janice Long, former BBC Radio 2 DJ, currently BBC Radio Wales DJ).
“Jack’s attitude is his winning formula – he’ll play anywhere, anytime, and be utterly professional in every sense. He’s a joy to work with, promote and will constantly surprise us on the team. His showcase at the Great Escape this year was out of the park, there wasn’t room to swing a cat in the Latest Music Bar, and the crowd were so excited and appreciative. Industry were definitely interested in him. Releasing another ep with promo support would help him keep up the momentum”.
