Driving guitar grooves,
Blistering drumming style,
Beer enhanced Vocals,
this Auckland-based three-piece band has a fan-bloody-tastic array of kick-ass songs.
Twin bros Robin and Gareth Killip, along with Adrian Hollay, make up the power trio jackpoint.
Robin on his guitar, a loud distorted outlet of big chord rock melodies and energy. Robin is also the voice behind jackpoint. Gareths drumming style is dynamic and powerful, keeping the flow (of flying arms) going at all times. Adrian adds depth to the band with his great bass grooves, style and good looks which won 2nd prize in a beauty contest.
Robin and Gareth, from Auckland NZ, have had much experience in the NZ music scene. Members of former 90's West-Auckland metal band Omen.
Adrian, from Stuttgart Germany, is a gifted guitar and bass player. He joined jackpoint in April 2004 and has enabled the band to develop and evolve into a much more established act.
Regarded as a band with no fuss playing for the love of the music, they demand attention with their wicked live shows around Auckland.
Their self-funded 6 track EP Lets Go Where? including a 7th track on video is now available from all Real Groovy NZ stores or online at www.amplifier.co.nz.
WAIT THERE'S MORE: Hold on to your Socks for some 10-track brand-spanking-wicked-new-sh*t coming out late 2009. If you dont they WILL Blow off.
