The Jack Stafford Foundation
Jack Stafford will be touring the US for ten weeks in
the Autumn (from September 16th until November
27th) across 20 different states. It’s his first US tour,
though he’s already well-known in Europe.
“I was born and raised in Suffolk in South-East England,
but grew up in Amsterdam after moving there
in my early 20s,” explained Stafford. “I had played in
a collage of coastal bands in England before packing
up and going traveling. It was Amsterdam that
caught my heart and I settled down, setting up a shop
literally, with a gallery space for selling the suits with
a zip that I perform in.”
He’s back solo on the on the lone high road now.
Playing upwards of 200 shows a year.

Stafford’s music is similar in spirit to artists like Ray
Davies and Elvis Costello, with lyrical and satirical songs
about hating your job, being unemployed, hating Woody
Allen, IKEA and wind farms.

actually it is not that hard to setup wind farms, the only problem is that it requires lots of capital investment.-’-

wind farms are great but they also take up a large land area“~
