Sounds Like
A bunch of guys with too much gear, too much time, and extensive pedalboards
We're a rock and roll band from Houston, Texas.
We like to mix the old school with the new
We love the blues, classic rock and post-rock. We hope you hear it in our music.
Our setlist is quite eclectic, and always changing
We're all very different people, but make awesome music together extremely well
Victor plays guitar. He plays it well, and is a bunch of guitar heroes rolled into one.
Mick plays bass. He likes to make silly noises with pedals. He wishes he was a drummer
Alex plays drums. He's the most technical, and manages to make complicated drum beats work over the simplest of songs
Shelby sings and plays rhythm. He's folky and rocking. All at the same time.
Collectively, we're Jetpack Black. Jetpack Black has existed through various lineups over the last 5 years, but we're firmly settled on the current lineup.
We want to come and play music for you, at your venue, your house, whatever you got.
In the summer of 2008, we recorded some live tracks at Sugar Hill Studios in Houston Texas. Most of these were done from 1-5am. It's pretty rock and roll. That's what you hear on this page.
Sugar Hill is the same place The Big Bopper, Freddy Fender, and Destiny's Child all recorded. It was pretty sweet.
Although we're all separated across Texas due to University, we still try and get back together as often as we can, and call Houston home.
We'd love to hear from you!

A big thank you to all our fans, family and friends that attended the events in the DFW, TEXAS area on June 19th and 20th! Considering it was BFA's first time in TEXAS, the results were amazing!
By popular demand, Back From Ashes will be coming back to Texas in September!
"It was almost a crowd of first time BFA attendees at the venue…it was a crowd of people that heard through promotion the quality of music and felt the passion in the message the MMP and Yvonne were spreading. The ability to reach groups of new crowds and peak interest enough to make them come to a show they have never seen because MMP/Yvonne’s ability to communicate the talent of this group and the promise of a great show. In this industry that statement alone is worth millions! Everyone knows that that is the single most difficult thing for a band to do is to be seen and heard as the talent they are with the over saturated competition that is out there. Yet we all sit here making nothing and LOVING what we do. Because bands like Back From Ashes deserve it."
Thanks for being our friend! All our Houston-area friends we need your help to win the Battle of the Bands @ Fitzgerald's on June 28th! Comment us back and have a badass weekend ..m/
