The music we play
We play what we want! Quite frankly if it's great we'll play it.
It doesn't matter when a song is from. We play a whole bunch of songs from the 60's until now. All mixed up.
We have a library of thousands of songs so if you don't like what your hearing just now, hang in there and another great song that you probably do like will be right along!
JACKtivities
As part of JACKtivities (our what's on and events guide) we provide a free service to local organizations who would like some free publicity for their events.
