Ready to bring their eclectic blend of East St Louis mid-south sound and phrasing and Indianapolis’ complex mid-west lyricism and fresh beat varieties, JackNCrown have hit the Indy music scene and are an explosive addition to music that starts by being produced locally and performed regionally.

JackNCrown’s musical influences cover several decades and combine the best music breakers of the 20th century into the 21st century amalgam of relevant lyrics and jazz riffs with hip-hop truth and credibility.

Jack (Adrian) and Crown (Nicholas) claim musical influences that range from jazz great Thelonius Monk to the lyric Beatles and solitary bass beats of Iron Butterfly to the melodious improvisation of Prince, the social commentary of Bob Marley, Talib Kwali’s and mos def’s lyric labyrinths. The music playing in the mental repertoire of JackNCrown combines with their respect for current music and comes out in a strong vocal sound with equally strong beats and rhythms.

Motivated most by everyday people, the subjects in their songs reflect strength in the struggle of life and love. JackNCrown bring music to life and life to music, or as they say, “We make good music for good musicians to make more good music.”

JackNCrown describe themselves as musicians’ musicians; artists who perfect the craft of making music into an art form loved by fresh listeners, but deeply appreciated by fellow musicians. When asked to describe themselves to their audiences, JackNCrown say

“We are just ordinary dreamers realizing extra-ordinary dreams.”
