A Journey Through Time
Can you believe it has been nearly three decades since Jack O’Neill and Cary Pierce, the dynamic duo behind Jackopierce, first stepped into the spotlight? Reflecting on their early days, they fondly remember, “We had only been a band for barely five years when we started getting courted by major labels in 1993.” They signed with A&M Records, where they teamed up with the legendary producer T Bone Burnett and moved to Los Angeles to record their first major label album.
From Small Stages to Big Dreams
Before long, Jackopierce found themselves appearing on major platforms like Conan O’Brien, and gracing the pages of Rolling Stone and People Magazine. Their unique blend of harmonies and authentic storytelling quickly captured hearts around the globe. With 16 studio and live albums under their belt, the duo has crafted a distinctive sound that resonates with fans both old and new.
