After Jack is a musical celebration of togetherness and with tight instrumentals, captivating vocals, unique harmonies and express songwriting, everyone will be tapping their toes and singing along instantly. Their unique take on traditional mountain music combines a distinct old-time energy with a mix of bluegrass, gospel and folk music.
The trio members, Emily, Mary and Rachel met while working in a professional theatre company from which the name After Jack comes from. Although they are often labeled “Americana”, their captivating sound, mixed with high energy and incredible joy bring to the stage cannot be described by one genre. Since forming in 2011, After Jack has been playing everywhere from NYC listening rooms to major festivals like Floydfest and sharing the stage with artists like The Lonesome River Band, Mountain Heart and Morgan O’Kane.
“ECHO” is an invitation, to all who encounter it, to share those moments that are influenced by people and places and the stories of experiences that can only be lived. This group’s songwriting brings these stories to life to be loved and lived if only for a few moments.
Despite their busy schedules, the trio takes time to share their music and stories of Appalachia with younger generations as part of Young Audiences – Arts for Learning-Virginia. After Jack is looking forward to a very busy schedule this summer on the festival venue. Here are some of the opportunities you will have to hear, appreciate and learn to love these girls and their wonderful music.
