About
Small Jackets is an Italian rock band known for their fusion of blues rock, southern rock, and hard rock. Originating in 2000, the band was initially formed by Danny Savanas (drums) and Lu Silver (vocals, rhythm guitar). Over the years, the lineup evolved, including members like Eddy Current (lead guitar), Rob Nobody Tini (bass), and Mark Oak (bass, co-lead vocals). The group has shared stages with renowned acts such as The Hellacopters and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, cementing their place in the rock scene with albums like Play at High Level, Walking the Boogie, and IV. Following some lineup changes, Phil Baychans joined as the new guitarist, contributing to their dynamic and energetic sound.
How to Sound Like Small Jackets
Small Jackets' sound is characterized by raw, energetic guitar riffs and a gritty blues-infused rock vibe. Their music often employs overdriven tube amps to achieve a warm, vintage tone, while the rhythmic interplay between guitars and bass drives their hard-hitting sound. The guitars typically feature heavy distortion and a southern rock twang, occasionally enriched with slide techniques to accentuate their blues influence. Drums in Small Jackets compositions provide a powerful, steady backbone, supporting the band's high-energy performances. To capture their sound, musicians might focus on using analog overdrive and distortion pedals, combined with dynamic live performances that highlight the band’s raw and spirited essence.
