• Mister Jack invites you to 'Dream a Little Dream This Christmas'

• 
  Mister Jack has become an online sensation this year thanks to MySpace, Youtube, Facebook and Bebo users lapping up his reggae sounds. As the 38th most viewed musician on UK Youtube and awards such as Best Male Vocal and Best Lyrics from Garageband.com, the reggae act is set to take the Christmas chart by storm with “Dream a Little Dream This Christmas”.

  Recorded at Metropolis Studios with Squeeze legends Simon Hanson and Stephen Large, “Dream a Little Dream This Christmas” came about because of Mister Jack’s natural talents. Hanson and Large were so impressed by Mister Jack’s skills they offered to play with him, with Hanson on drums and Large on piano.

  An online sensation

  Having successfully proved you only need to make a name for yourself on the Internet to get people to love your music, Mister Jack is set on keeping his name on the lips of the online community and could also have a festive favourite for years to come. Released on Monday (December 6th), “Dream a Little Dream This Christmas” is expected to build on his soaring popularity. It’s hard to believe with his now-natural reggae tones that Mister Jack’s routes lie in punk and he once shared stages with the likes of The Kings Blues, The Filaments and PAIN.
