LISTEN! new single from Jack Jones (from Trampoline)
South Wales daydream believer Jack Jones has released a new single Peaches Out Of Reach, through Strap Originals, on Wednesday 7th August.
Peaches Out Of Reach is a spacey sonic hymn to night owl tendencies, is the third track to be lifted from Jack’s much anticipated debut solo album ‘Jack Jones’ released on Friday September 20th. His previous singles Breathe and Who Let The Bass Pump Through The Floor picked up multiple plays on BBC6 Music and Radio X.
His last single is also a great track – a pulsating pump of dance floor action – like Underworld vamped up for 2024 with a thumping kick drum underpinning the electronica and Jack’s council estate poet laureate poetry detailing life in a Welsh living room and beyond.
This is a great single – original and you can dance to it.
Jack Jones says of Peaches Out Of Reach: “Sometimes simple pleasures are the answer. Life’s shit and then you die, but in the meantime I’m going to play Super Mario and watch trashy films on TV….”

Jack Jones is a compulsive wordsmith, an obsessive jotter-down of phrases, and weird things that people say. Across three studio albums and a hatful of singles and EPs since 2013, his work with TRAMPOLENE has always drawn from this humungous, ever-accumulating verbal resource. On his own, he has also published a novel (2023’s ‘Swansea to Hornsey’) and recited poems and delivered spoken-word onstage.
For this album Jack Jones has put away his guitar and embraced a fresh and highly contemporary sound in which to couch his hard-hitting state of the nation poems of existential fear and loathing. His lyrics tackle many of today’s burning issues: mental health, drug addiction, mortality, and the tortuous demands of technology. There’s also joy and hope in there. The new direction arose out of an introduction to Mancunian artist/producer/songwriter/laptop warrior Adam French. For Jones, French’s way of composing and recording was like being teleported into a parallel dimension.
Jack Jones will be supporting Peter Doherty for a Strap Originals showcase at the Northendon Fringe Festival (TNFF) at Wythenshawe – Cringlewood Social Club on Thursday 8th August and will be playing the following headline shows in November:
