peter and the bearfootfishermen:

Rediscovered ourselves music from the heart and soul. just plain drums guitar vocals and bass. went back to roots influences of nirvana, kyuss, pearl jam.

No more strings and overdubs.. pure who we are.



Since the start of 2013 bassplayer in Jacky Checker:

Best described as a post-punk, new-wave rockband; sexy, raw and resolute! Insiders claim JC was influenced by Joy Division, Interpol and Queens Of The Stone Age.

Others refer to a David Bowie / Deftones crossbreed. Either way, where JC’s songs sound catchy, they Iyrically revolve around themes as relationships, despair, and the need to escape from everyday life.

Its thrusting bass, melancholic guitars, tight drums, spherical synths and emotional vocals make Jacky Checker account for a unique live performance www.facebook.com/JackyChecker
