His cards are on fire…

Jack Skuller has been called many things including  “the anti-Bieber,”  “a mini Jack White” and “a modern day Buddy Holly.”

Jack debuted at just 14 years old with an acclaimed 7” single on Bar/None. He is an electrified, blues-driven, rockabilly-tinged King Bee of the wrong era and cites his influences as Little Walter, Buddy Holly and Elvis Costello.  Jack is the 2014 recipient of the (Buddy) Holly Prize from the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In recognition of receiving this distinguished award, indie label Mint 400 Records reissued Jack’s EP “Tell Me Your Heart” which featured Nada Surf drummer Ira ElliotAmerican Songwriter Magazine called the title track “analog, vintage, and cool... with a sincerity.”

Now 18,  he is ready to up the ante with an explosive double A-sided new single produced by GRAMMY-nominated Joel Hamilton (who has worked with Pretty Lights, The Black Keys and Tom Waits). Co-written with Christmas Davis (of the Tall Pines) the songs display Skuller’s gifts as a guitarist, harmonica player and vocalist. The irresistibly charged “Hard to Want” reveals the turmoil of a soured romance. The blues injected “Can You See Me,” was inspired by an audition experience for NBC’s The Voice. Skuller’s “cards are on fire” and he lays them down, betting it all. 

Can you see him now?

“Analog, vintage, and cool, but with a sincerity missing from a lot of the ironic throwback recordings of the hipster sphere. We sense a lot of potential in this budding songwriter. - AMERICAN SONGWRITER MAGAZINE 

Jack Skuller is a teen idol in the wrong era. He’s also got the looks of a jukebox hero. ‘Tell Me Your Heart’ is an unexpectedly well done tribute to the timeless teen freedoms of hot rodding and heart breaking. Buddy Holly would be proud. - NYC THE DELI MAGAZINE

"The retro cool stud performed a track for A-Sides. Big things may be in store for what the New York Post referred to as “mini Jack White.” Not too shabby. The world could use another cool guy named Jack." - HUFFINGTON POST/A-SIDES
