The Jacques are very much a band that have been making themselves ever present on the thriving Bristol scene, which is now on the verge of over flowing. Not that I should be complaining, because it is really exciting.

There are some very obvious comparisons that people will make with the likes of the Libertines, but I feel that you could also throw in bits of the Cure and maybe even the live energy of the Manics, dare I even use those comparisons.

Pretty Dj is a fizzy little pop tune that could have quite easily walked off the back of Up The Bracket, with a nervous baby faced energy. They have hooks and an undeniable energetic stage presence. Watching the Jacques is like watching a bunch of kids overloading on popping candy, and boy is that fun. And to see a room full of kids enjoying themselves.
