The Jason Helms Band is an alternative country anomoly. Formerly known as NewJack and the Rippers, JHB electrifies stages with a mixture of finely honed songwriting, hell-raising stage performances, and virtuosic musicianship. That's right folks, you gotta come see it to believe it!
Jason "NewJack" Helms is a singer-songwriter with a knack for spinning tales of life and love, and razor-sharp witty lyricism that will keep the listener finding new meaning to his songs with each listen. A God-fearing father and devoted husband, Jason crafts his home and life experiences into heartfelt songs, infusing them with an honesty that is rarely seen amongst the throngs of would-be red dirt/texas country poseurs that inhabit the alternative country scene of today. The songs produced here are infused with a realness that recalls hints of Bruce Robison, Steve Earle and Jack Ingram. You may not walk a mile in his shoes, but listen long enough and you will feel each callous and blister, only to find yourself wincing with each painful step and rejoicing with every triumph.
