After half a decade of practicing corporate law in Chicago, Lucas Jack made a hard left turn, ditched the attorney’s digs, and doubled down on his dream of becoming a full-time songwriter. Jack established his piano-centric sound across his first three records, but he couldn’t do it without the help of drummer Michael Gomez and bassist Justin Schneider, who continue to perform alongside the eponymous frontman.
The next chapter in the Lucas Jack saga is the upcoming Forever and Nowhere, venturing a bit away from the acoustic piano to embrace vintage electric pianos and synths. You can see the trio 10pm next Tuesday at Saxon Pub, you can learn more about Lucas Jack with their recent five-part documentary, Send Some Fire Down and you can enjoy the new album’s lead single of the same name right now!
