28 Jacks Limited Edition EP Sep 08
The Heirs to the JyroJets Throne? Local band show on songs like "15 Bottles of wine" and "Far Too long" that they're rapidly bringing a real unique freshness to their Nirvana Influenced Rockiness. - ICA Review
The filthy Brit rock of 28 Jacks proves that there’s more to Inverness than the road to John O’ Groats - Is this music review
The weekend started on Thursday if the the attitude of the enthusiastically unrepressed crowd for the 1990s was anything to judge by. With good opening sets from Glasgows The Tide and Inverness own 28 Jacks whose catchy indie rock suggested they had drank deep from the same well of 1960s influences that served Oasis so well - Inverness Courier 11.03.08 (Calum Macleod)
Probably heading the pack of the young, new and exciting bands coming through in The Highlands, Their take on a classic indie sound has won admirers everywhere and its no fluke, just pure talent, that has saw them support the likes of Tiny Dancers, The Rites and Jyrojets. - ICA (Steven Leighton)"
SUDDENLY it's a name that's everywhere – and that could be a sign that 28 Jacks is a band that doesn't stand still. - The Highland News By Margaret Chrystall 03 April, 2008
Could 2009 be their year? One of the most promising of local acts. - ICA Nov 08

Bio
28 Jacks are a 5 piece Indie Rock band hailing from the Highlands of Scotland AKA Nessie country. We have been together for 4 years or so but a fresh new line-up for 28 Jacks in 2010 sees us going back to the drawing board. Mark Williamson and Martin Stewart have joined the line up and brought us new ideas and a fresh take on things, with a renewed vigour we are hoping for big things in 2010.
New songs, new ideas and new directions(?) coming thick and fast, some of which will appear on our brand spanking new 5 track EP due for release in Aug 2010.
