Kiko, Matt, Josh, and Ellie are JACKALS - a Nu-Metal/Grunge band from Manchester and Leeds that take an atypical approach to their music.
Fresh off the their inaugural UK tour, JACKALS have already received airtime on BBC Introducing, Total Rock Radio, and been featured on the Unsigned Guide’s Spotlight.
As well as supporting Irish Math Rock duo Bicurious on their UK tour, JACKALS were also one of the headliners at the Hanwell Hootie 2022 in London, celebrating Marshall Amplification’s 60 year anniversary.
Following their previous single “SHUGGIE”, JACKALS are at it again with a tougher, darker sound.
JACKALS want to bring concepts and issues to light that aren't normally in the public eye. As people go through their lives staring into rectangles, they create false representations of how their world really is. JACKALS' music explores that, and the need to free minds from the invisible boundaries and concepts people force upon each other.
Lyrically JACKALS tackle a wide range of subjects, with everything from the current political crises in Cuba, all the way to how the western world acts as an enabler to toxic masculinity being fair game. Whether it's the stigma of mental illness, or the psychedelic human experience, JACKALS are unafraid to wrap their music in the themes that matter the most to them.
