Gone, which was released in 2017, is described by Jack & Jack as a ‘concept EP’ that explores the downfall of a relationship, “which is 99% of most relationships,” affirms Gilinsky. “The lyrics and the videos convey the story. The first few tracks are about infatuation and falling for a girl. The later tracks are all about the breakup. It’s going to make our fans feel a specific way. If you’re in love or you’re dealing with heartbreak, there’s a song for you. We’ve been through all of that. It came from a real place.”
Jack & Jack will play a headline show at London’s Bush Hall on 15th May following on from their successful support slot on a 31-date tour with PRETTYMUCH in the US.
In 2015 Jack & Jack released their indie EP Calibraska, the title of which combined the duo’s home state of Nebraska with their current base of California. The EP landed at #1 on iTunes Overall Top Albums chart, #3 on the Billboard Independent Albums chart, and #12 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.
The duo has released 11 singles so far with over 2 million collective sales and over 100 million music streams.
