"one of the strongest guitar players in contemporary folk." Sing Out!
Full of stories and foot-tapping melodies, Jack's music is heavily influenced by the music of the American South. His original songs bear hints of Stephen Foster, Jimmie Rodgers, and Hoagy Carmichael, all filtered through the mist of Appalachian mountain music. In the words of WUMB radio's host Dave Palmater, "Whether Jack thinks of himself in this way or not, he is a poet and philosopher who helps us understand and appreciate the beauty of the struggles we have been through individually and as a people. He is an American institution walking, a road warrior, a talker, an inspiration and a great guy to hang with. He is the Song Dog."
