Jackie Treehorn is a totally fantastic funkadelic/soultastic/rockaphonic 7 piece sound-storm, based in Vancouver, B.C.

Starting with a few friends who met at Selkirk College, this band formed from the sweet mutations of a variety of different bands and different people. But it was last year that the current roster was posted up on the board.

Lapslide and keys (Adam Kerby), sax (Lorick Russow), trumpet (Ashley Robyn Slater), trombone (Chelsea Burden), bass (Geoffrey Leathwood), guitar (Kevin Sanders), drums (Derek Van Deursen) and 4 vocalists (Slater, Kerby, Burden and Russow) bring a whole lot of whallop to your earholes. The band squeezes all 7 members for material, making the mix truly eclectic and exciting. With songs ranging from rock-gospel anthems in which your friends are the object of worship, to straight up songs of funky conquest where the brain is the thang that turns you on, its a great big mix bag of feel-good for 2010. Modern ideas to classic grooves: that's the JTH way. But it doesn't stop there: JTH has been known to mix in the likes of Aretha Franklin, Fleetwood Mac, The Talking Heads, Marvin Gaye, and Carole King to their ever expanding list of homegrown grooves. A dance party is sure to break out when Jackie Treehorn hits the stage.

Jackie Treehorn has been gigging regularly all over Vancouver; from regular Wednesday night stints on Main St. to outdoor festivals on the mainland and Vancouver Island. The band will be releasing their debut album, We Are Jackie Treehorn, this June to launch their summer tour. They were recently chosen as a top 20 finalist in the Shore 104.3 Song Search Contest. The fan base grows with every show, expanding the JTH universe a little more each day...
