Jackie realized that they could really have a career in music when Martha Van Hoos started the first fan club for the group in 1985. While the club started out small after the organizer heard the group play at a small club in Orlando, the club grew leaps and bounds after the band’s first national tour.

Jackie's new project is a refinement of their critically-acclaimed sound. The band recently finished their most current album, but they are already thinking of their next move.

Critics have generally commended Jackie for their ability to connect with the crowd at live shows. San Antonio music critic Nigel Bierlein has always pointed out group’s great sound. Jackie’s most current release is the band’s best reviewed project yet.

The group is sure to schedule a concert at Odor in Biloxi every time they tour because they used to play there all the time before they made it big.
