Jact

Named for British slang meaning "ready to go, " Jact consists of vocalist/guitarist Andy Frank, guitarist Ted Hutt, bassist Jeff Peters and drummer C.J.Eriksson. The group formed when Frank and Hutt met in London after the breakups of Frank's previous group Pusherman and Hutt's band Reacharound. Connecting musically and personally, the pair returned to Hutt's new homebase of L.A. to continue writing songs together. Hutt's former bandmate Peters joined them soon after, and with the addition of Vancouver native Eriksson, the band was complete. Their self-titled debut album arrived in 1999 on Trauma Records. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
