About Jack

A sitar a day keeps the bad juju away

Sitar

New Malden

I am a young musician with multiple projects, generally in the genre of psychedelic music. I can cover many styles at any event, either as a background performer or as a main act. Generally an improvised set, can take directions of the kind of atmosphere you would like to achieve, and can intertwine covers throughout.

Jack's Reviews

5 out of 5

I recently got married over the summer and had a bohemian/rock n roll wedding. In a lineup with two other bands, Jack Hally opened with enchanting freestyle sitar interspersed with covers of my favourite king gizzard and the lizard wizard songs. Me being of Indian origin, the sitar was an important part of the celebration as a symbolic cultural fusion with modern western music that i am a fan of. Jack did justice to the instrument and people of all ages enjoyed the bewitching set with positive reviews from guests and family members alike. All in all, a very happy wedding was had, in no small measure to sitar playing Jack.
