Jack O' The Clock - Rare Weather

Review by Claude Gaillardetz

Rare Weather is an album by Jack O' The Clock that showcases their unique blend of progressive rock, folk, and avant-garde music. The album features a variety of instruments, including guitar, violin, clarinet, bassoon, and percussion, which are used to create intricate and complex arrangements.

The opening track, "All My Friends Are Dead," sets the tone for the album with its eerie and unsettling melody. The lyrics are cryptic and poetic, hinting at dark themes and hidden meanings. This sense of mystery and intrigue pervades the entire album, making it a compelling listen from start to finish.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Old Man and the Table Saw," which features a haunting melody and intricate instrumentation. The song tells the story of an old man who becomes obsessed with building a table, and the toll it takes on his physical and mental health. The lyrics are both poignant and unsettling, and the music perfectly captures the mood of the story.

About Jack O' The Clock

Jack O The Clock was formed in Oakland, California in the summer of 2007 when Damon Waitkus and Nicci Reisnour, who had both been composition students at Mills College, discovered a mutual interest in alloying folk-inspired songwriting with a composerly approach to instrumentation and arrangement. The group began as an acoustic trio, with Waitkus on guitar, hammer dulcimer, and voice, Reisnour playing harp, wine glasses, and melodica, and Emily Packard playing violins and banjo. They were soon joined by percussionist Jordan Glenn and began performing around the Bay Area in early 2008. In the summer of that year, Reisnour left and the remaining trio recruited Jason Hoopes on bass and Kate McLoughlin on bassoon, voice, and flute. The expanded ensemble enabled Jack O The Clock to diversify its sound dramatically, incorporating elements of progressive rock, free jazz, minimalism, and other influences that appeared as new material developed. Jack O The Clock performs regularly throughout the Pacific Northwest, and has released four full-length CD-albums.
