John Webster a.k.a Jack Name, also touring guitarist for White Fence, have new album his debut album, Light Show (out 1/21 on God Records) visits El Paso, TX. for a one nigth show at The Lowbrow Palace, check out here a preview for their new album.
Light Show is a rock and roll sci-fi novella by Los Angeles underground spectre, Jack Name. Whiffs of young Brian Eno, Gary Numan, Chrome, ELO, Bruce Haack, even Richard O’Brien (a la “Rocky Horror”) and Stefan Wul stain the sleeves of this story, but it’s still cooked at home, wholly original and honest.
The sounds are a dense and ever-shifting beast and the narrative holds as much significance as the sound. It’s a chilling glimpse into an imaginary world torn apart by a war between rival gangs, the shadows, and the wooly bullies.
Teenage vandals and druid-like oracles lead the resistance against a juggernaut of psychological warlords in this genre-bending explosion of sonic fiction, illustrating why critics have called Jack Name “an aural mirror to an A.D.D. generation.”
