Jack & Jack are an American pop-rap duo from Omaha, Nebraska, consisting of teenagers Jack Johnson and Jack Gilinsky. After success via the social media app Vine, the duo turned to a career as musicians. They are best known for their 2014 single "Wild Life" which has peaked to number 2 on iTunes and to number 87 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
Jack & Jack began posting six second clips as a comedy duo on Vine during the summer of 2013. Their breakout came with their "Nerd Vandals" clip going viral, praised by the Huffington Post as the perfect vine, amassing the pair 25,000 followers in a short period of time. Their vines consisted of 6 second covers of pre-existing songs, also including "When This Song Comes On" clips made exclusively in the car, short comedy clips featuring the couple as overconcerned parents, nerd alter-egos Eric and Winston, girls in wigs, and more. As of February 2015, they have accumulated over 5 million followers on their shared account, and are currently ranked 18th most popular Viner as of April 2015.
Jack & Jack's musical pursuits began when the duo met sophomores Turner and Travis Eakins (also known as Barrington Park) in 2013. Through this partnership, Jack & Jack recorded their earliest co-written songs (Including "Indoor Recess," their first unofficially released single) in a makeshift studio, with a backing instrumental made by the Eakins brothers. This enabled their music to be mixed and released on iTunes via third party distributor TuneCore.
Their first original song "Distance" was released in January 2014, peaking at number 7 on the iTunes US Hip Hop charts.As of February 2015, Jack & Jack have self-released 11 singles with intentions of a full length debut album, including collaborations with the likes of Emblem3 (Cheat Codes, Bucket List), Shawn Mendes and Steve Aoki.
Both Jacks play instruments and write their own music, sharing interests across genres including reggae, R&B, pop and hip hop which have influences on their own songs. As of February 2015, they have sold 1,000,000 singles on iTunes. They have also made the Billboard Top Digital Songs List with "Doing It Right," "Tides," "Cold Hearted," "Like That" (feat. Skate), "Right Where You Are," and "Wild Life."
