Jack Blackman and the Beautiful Wreck is a new band formed by UK singer-songwriter and guitarist Jack Blackman. It features his brother Euan on guitar and vocals, James Maguire on bass and vocals and Chris Quirk on drums.
The debut single, 'No Silver Lining' is a 12 string guitar driven slice of catchy escapist sunshine pop featuring Beach Boys infused harmonies and a sweet guitar solo from his ‘little’ brother Euan.
