“The best live act in the West Midlands” – Songwall
Jack Goodall performs his own kind of music, contemporary yet inspired by an array of different artists. Having studied under and jammed with blues performers Ian Siegal and Aynsley Lister and Afrobeat star Dele Sosimi, Jack displays these stylistic influences in his own music while melodically and lyrically very much doing his own thing. He has toured the UK, Ireland and Canada playing both solo and with Canadian band The Hoop, formed during his time as a student in Windsor, Ontario.
As well as releasing three solo albums, in 2021 Goodall released Out Of Here with The Kick, a band formed during lockdown, who became a formidable force at live shows.
As well as his own music he’s also played on and produced David Freja’s record Strom and another upcoming Freja album, plus releases by Karen Swan, Dominic Hyde and Wildflower. In 2018 he also worked with theatre company Extant and Birmingham’s REP providing the music for the play/multi-sensory experience The Sense Of You.
Goodall is currently working on a solo album with mixing duties assumed by Doctor L (Tony Allen, Mbongwana Star…) due for release in 2024.
