THE JAKE - More to Life (EP)

What do they sound like?

Unique. These guys have created their own style. If it's musical innovation you want, this dynamic trio will not disappoint. (Rave Magazine)

They're very much in a niche of their own here. Completely and utterly unique, I dare anyone to try and pidgeonhole it. (Kristen Veltmeyer ­ Tsunami Magazine)

Born out of their collective love for a variety of vastly differing genres, THE JAKE's sound has always proved difficult to define. Whether it could be described as "a compelling mix of funky, groovy guitars and indie pop sounds, breezy rhythms, delicious melodies and quirky vocals" (Skinny's Music), or "a blend of jazz beats, borderline punk style vocals with funky rhythms" (The Music Platform) or simply "a sonic swirl of retroism" (Tsunami), it seems almost every listener has a different perspective of The Jake's style.

Having already made a name for themselves through a multitude of live performances in and around their hometown of Brisbane, the trio found themselves exposed to a much wider audience following the release of their second EP, "The Underground Groove" in 2002.

This release was immediately followed by their first Australian East-Coast tour and then a two month tour through Britain and the Netherlands where the band received an overwhelming response to their music and live shows.

Spearheaded by the tracks "Sayonara" and "Just Like Eve and Adam", the EP quickly received airplay on independent and commercial radio throughout Australia, Britain and the United States as well as the Australian Triple J network.
