Jellyjacket is an indie rock band from the Twin Cities featuring members of iconic local bands Mile One, the Flamin’ Oh’s, and some guy named Rich. With tight, high-energy shows under their belt, Jellyjacket is earning rave reviews. They invoke a 70s vibe and a sound that feels like the Rolling Stones meets INXS. The result is a satisfying soundscape of crunchy sounds, sly vocals and a percussive core reminiscent of throwback grooves. Jellyjacket is somehow simultaneously gritty and polished. Its seasoned members – Patrick Schmid (vocals), Andy Pavelka (guitar), Paul Hermes (guitar), Rich Pearson (bass), Bob Burns (keyboards), and Ben Kaplan (drums) – are having the musical time of their life, which is fully evident in live performances that reflect the decades these guys have spent making music, connecting with fans, and conjuring anthemic moments. Jellyjacket released its self-titled, 13-song debut album in 2024, and anticipates a new, full-length release in 2026. Their music can be heard on Bandcamp, Spotify, and iTunes.
