On the 12th of September Sad Jack will perform at Debaser Nova (former Brooklyn Bar) at Hornstulls Strand. The gig is also part of Jack’s creators birthday party and will feature both some unreleased Sad Jack material as well as a few surprises, of course written by Lars Edvall, but not originally for Jack’s purposes.

The band:

• Emil Olin, drums
• Magnus Funemyr, keyboard and backing vocals
• Emma Nilsdotter, backing vocals and percussion
• Johan Nyberg, bass
• Tias Engvall, electric guitar and backing vocals
• Jack, lead vocals, keyboards and acoustic guitar

A the end of April four new tracks will be released in the form of an EP. The tone of it? Well, rather dark of course, but not without exceptions. A bit more acoustic drums and electric guitars than usual, among other things. Track list as follows:

• 1. In it for the long run (about accepting the true nature of oneself)
• 2. Don’t hear a word you’re saying (about wrongly blaming one’s wrongdoings on one’s ”true” nature)
• 3. Minor issues (about even someone’s slightest behaviour, habits or likewise being enlarged into big problems)
• 4. Unpaintable (about words and images not being nearly enough to describe a certain person)

Track list on coming EP ”All we’re waiting for”:

1. Left of what’s right
2. Days of glory
3. Solicity
4. Virginia
5. Battle me
6. All we’re waiting for

The EP includes a song collaboration together with the talented Josefina Sanner. Johan Nyberg has contributed with bass playing and Conny Lindgren and Andreas Lavotha with violin/viola and cello respectively.

One sided single and story (with a surgical theme) of a person who has put themselves out there – only to be ripped apart by someone who does not care enough – now begging to be left alone to lick their wounds. Somewhat an homage to Depeche Mode, a band who’s magnificent legacy to synth music needs no further comments. The blogg Popmuzik interviewed Jack about the song and the story behind it. Read about it in Swedish here!

Released on the 28th of July – a mix of three very different but also dark songs.

A new EP with three songs will be released in July 2022. All three tracks are built around stories of malfunctional relationships of different kinds.

In the middle of the summer Jack decided to release four new songs. This time through the lenses of other people’s/thing’s eyes – a young LGBT+ person, a handgun, a small servant robot and an outkast.
