Press



"Well, world, watch the hell out! This kid is unbelievably promising. His songwriting ability is otherworldly."
-Smother Magazine


"It feels like a movie -- so well-thought out and layered that I don't know what to think....Conte's become something of an internet phenomenon...."
-Redefine Magazine


"...Conte is a one-man wrecking crew....There is a true talent here and under all of the gleam and shine lies an impressively gifted musician, one that shouldn’t be ignored by anyone."
-Adequacy.net


"San Francisco’s Jack Conte is either on the edge of the next wave of popular music or an eclectic, one of a kind phenomenon.... You have to hear this to believe it."
-Wildy's World


"Conte crafts mountainous cityscapes in a jumble of colliding tangents as he wails amid towering architecture, electric avenues, and alleyways as thrilling as they are foreboding, a ceaseless carousel ride through the modern oddtopia we call civilization.... the guy's a whiz kid and a half and possessed of bravado not often heard.... This sort of daring needs to get out and influence others above and beyond the audience this guy richly deserves."
-AcousticMusic.com


"In browsing Conte's repertoire, difficulty ensues when trying to keep track of how many instruments this prodigy incorporates into his sound. A counting attempt will more than likely require two hands and a few toes....Keep an eye on this talent."
-The Pride Newspaper


"New and original Conte smashes together his instruments to make some brilliant pop tunes.... With a lead track like "Starlight," he'll have no trouble attracting fans and labels alike."
-CDReviews.com


"Conte has poured himself into these 15 minutes, focusing talent and energy into a deliciously honest handful of acoustic electro-pop songs that will force you to listen and understand. These four songs easily manage to prove Conte's songwriting prowess, lifting your spirits and leaving you hungry for more.... Conte is an extremely talented songwriter, and I would not doubt that he will be hitting it big someday."
-Music-Reviewer.com


"...with a moody, concentrated energy, these four songs give your brain a wee workout along with your ears. Classy, tasteful stuff."
-Blogcritics.org

Bio


A child of the new music paradigm, Jack Conte has been jabbing at the acoustic world with electronic punches for years. With the release of the VideoSongs and the Sleep in Color EP, the buzz is starting to build for the third West Coast Tour this March.

The Bay Area native has influences that range from Danny Elfman to Bjork to Chopin, and as a child, whether he was listening to his father playing Bill Evans tunes on the piano or his mother singing old Cole Porter standards, Jack found himself immersed in sound. His live show springs from this diverse spectrum of styles, and it involves multiple keyboards, guitars, jerry-rigged drum pads, and an occasional accordion, all glued together with thumping beats and in-your-face electronics.

As a member of one of the first generations to grow up with computers on demand, Jack comments, “This is a music revolution, and it’s everyone that’s making it happen. It’s the fans, it’s the musicians, it’s the blogging sites, it’s the programmers who make the blogging sites, it’s everyone.”

Hey Jack (nice eyeball) - Just did a cover of "Let It Be" by The Beatles. Not a videosong, but it's my own take on one of my favorite songs.
