Sabbatical [06.09.2011] Unfortunately we have to announce that The Jackanapes will not be seen on stage for about one year. Our drummer Klaas has moved to the USA for his work for one year. The band has decided not to perform during the absence of Klaas. This means that The Jackanapes will take a very long break until somewhere Oktober/November 2012. Until then we´ll save all our ska energy, so we will probably cause a hurricane of ska on the stages next year. We wish Klaas and his family all the best in the USA and we hope he will arrange some gigs for us there. The Better Part [23.09.2010] We proudly present our newest song 'The Better Part' to you. 'The Better Part' can be downloaded here! At the moment we are filling up our agenda for this fall and the year 2011 and we're planning to record more songs and a videoclip.   read more »
