began writing at an early age and wrote what he
calls his first decent song, Breakfast, at
the age of 14. He has been performing regularly in
clubs near his home since he was 15. He took a year
off after finishing high school to tour with his
music, much of it with Eric
Taylor who then produced his first full-length
CD. Having finished in English Literature at Oxford,
Jack in now living in London.
"Jack
Harris' mastery of the guitar and his passionate
singing frame the delivery of some of the loveliest
language in contemporary song. His subjects, often
inspired by other works of art - a painting, a
statue, a Greek myth - are filled with a yearning
that transcends personal desire - he's a voice of
regeneration, of sure kindness in the face of cruel
realities. Mr. Harris is a born poet, and it
would be a mistake to say he is destined for
greatness. He is already there."
