A little while back I hit up a rock concert in Santa Cruz, Calif. at the Catalyst. The opening band was called Jackie Rocks, named after the 15-year-old lead singer and guitar player.
I was upstairs in the bar shooting pool and having beers with friends when the band caught my attention. Sounded like Pat Benetar was playing downstairs. Jackie Rocks busted out a set of original music and a couple covers that blew MY MIND. I hit 'em up for their contact info so I could check out their stuff. Take a look at the Alicia Keys cover of No One they performed that night.
Jackie Rocks is awesome! Very talented young musicians. We love doing shows with them. Jackie is also a great mentor, supporting younger musicians.
