The Jacks <jackstheband>
"Latest Official up to date site for fans of The Jacks, (former Colorado, Geordie Jack and Caledonia)"


From the Highlands come the award winning band THE JACKS (formerly known as COLORADO). Members of the band have changed over the time, but the distinctive core sound has stayed. The band is centred around the JACK family from the small village of Golspie and features KEVIN & TREVOR JACK sons of original member GEORDIE JACK along with co-founder DADO DUNCAN, who are both still core to the band. Since they formed Colorado in 1978 the band have toured in over 26 coutries with some of the biggest names in country at many famous venues including the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. They have released 10 albums, featured on radio, TV and were voted top UK country band for 9 years in succession. Playing original and favourite songs, the crowds love the party good time atmosphere which the band brings to the stage and these guys always leave a happy audience. They blend country, with folk and rock using fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitars, accordion, drums & thick harmony vocals like no other band.

The Jacks says:

    Hi we are getting married on the 10th July next year and your band has been recommended are you free and how much? Our reception is in the Ben Wyvis in Strathpeffer. Do you do Ceilidh music? Are you playing any gigs around the Inverness area so we could come and see you?
