"Lucas Jack's heart and soul bleed through his piano, and we are lucky to be able to hear it." - Brandon Callies, On Tour Monthly
"Before I Forget is a curated distillation of experiences and impressions drawn from the exhilarating, and at times, heartbreaking moments I spent as an ambivalent twenty-something professional in Chicago, searching for meaning in my often-failed relationships and half-hearted career choice," says Lucas, who is responsible for songwriting, vocals, piano, organ, and Mellotron on the album. Also featured on Before I Forget is Matt Addler on guitar, Matt Zavala on guitar, James Hertless on bass, Joe Cortez IV on drums, Julian Morales and Brady Black on violin, Nick Cedillo on horns, and Marty Muse on pedal steel.
Despite this being his debut release, Lucas Jack has already opened up for Foreigner, and worked with Grammy-nominated producer Mack Damon on Before I Forget. The album was mastered by Grammy-award winner Greg Calbi (Paul Simon Graceland and St. Vincent Birth In Reverse) at Sterling Sound.
