Delivering live performances since 2001, packed with explosive energy and exhilarating audience responses, JL has opened for acts such as the Ataris, Fall Out Boy, Bowling for Soup, Warped Tour Ernie Ball, Glasseater, Price, Unsung Zeros, River City High, premiered on an episode of The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, and worked with multiple Grammy winner Richard Finch of KC and the Sunshine Band.
The band released a 6 song E.P. (June 2006) and set off on a one month Winter East Coast Tour, which landed the boys their first indie deal on JMB Records. JL is now getting ready for the release of their second album "On a chariot of Fire," a video for "Ring Ring," and a spring tour. A loud and powerful power trio; wherein each member makes there own distinct mark while functioning entirely as one solid unit.
JL offers listeners an alternative/progressive/experimental/rock groove, catchy lyrics, musical in your face progressions, and one hell of a live show. With the onslaught of the release of their first album in 2002 there are few phrases which could define Jacobs Ladder better than Like Water, so it is no surprise that they chose that exact comparison to aptly title the release. "Their influences include a wide spectrum of amazing & timeless bands and they use melody to convey what words alone cannot do justice." WRITTEN BY: Laura Thomson & K. Michael Thomas
