Saving Jackie

Jenny and Anthony, a Brother/Sister duo, and John Cortez are all former members of the original Rock/Rap Band Jackie On Acid. JOA was formed in late August 1998 and played throughout Texas, opening up for National groups, including Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Papa Roach, 2 Live Crew, Bowling for Soup, Fu Manchu, Skatenigs, Union Underground, and L7. During their five year venture, JOA released a self-titled LP with popular songs such as Stitched Lips and Flake. They were featured in numerous media publications such as the San Antonio Current, Express News, The Edge Magazine and Meltdown Magazine. On July 3, 2003, JOA played their last farewell bash at Sin 13 Bar, selling out on all their merchandise.
Entering into a new era, in early 2019, the three former members of JOA reunited with a new vibe to create Saving Jackie, a rap/rock group with a message of redemption for new life. Alongside former members, Front Woman/Vocalist Jenny 4C Ramirez, Drummer Anthony and Bass Player John Cortez are new members, Jerry Ryan on Rhythm Guitar/Backing Vocals and Rick Garza on Lead Guitar/Backing Vocals. After encountering life's struggles and strife, this band shares a message of how they overcame life's major trials. Their new EP brings a rocking out message of victory and hope with songs like My Faith is Larger, My Everything and Silence the Storm.
Saving Jackie has been interviewed by Metal Mars, Robbs MetalWorks ~ El Mero Metal, from Texas, Walter Cardozo of #Jesus Es Mi Rock from Chile, South America, Turn Up The Volume Blog in Belgium, Mistress Angie from 502 Radio and Abdul Whitemetal. Their recent EP also received reviews from Mike Geiner of BTTW Church, "Saving Jackie is a welcomed breath in the music industry." From Bryan Blake of Vinyl Lollipops, "This band seriously kicks the gluteus Maximus and leaves you wanting more."
