JACKIE-O MOTHERFUCKER

​

Jackie-O Motherfucker was founded by Tom Greenwood in the mid-90s. The group has had more than forty members over the years, drawn from the U.S. experimental scene, notably Natalie Mering, who now records under Weyes Blood, briefly on bass. The current lineup is a 4-piece led by Tom Greenwood.

​

Jackie-O Motherfucker's music draws from a variety of subgenres, including various folk musics of the world, drone, free jazz, psychedelia, and noise rock, and is heavily improvisational in its nature.

​

The group has had recordings released by many different labels including Fire Records, Ecstatic Peace, Feeding Tube Records, ATP Recordings and their own U-Sound Archive and has been on several international tours including several performances at All Tomorrow's Parties Festivals by way of Sonic Youth. The band played the 2002 and 2004 festivals curated by Sonic Youth and the 2007 festival curated by Thurston Moore.
