SAVING JACKIE

Jenny & Anthony, a Brother/Sister duo, and John Cortez are former members of the original Rap/Rock Band Jackie On Acid (JOA).
JOA was formed in late August 1998 and played throughout Texas, opening up for National groups, including Mighty Mighty Bosstones,
Papa Roach, 2 Live Crew, Bowling for Soup, Fu Manchu, Skatenigs, Union Underground, and L7.
During their five year venture, JOA released a self-titled LP with popular songs such as ‘Stitched Lips’ and ‘Killa Man’.
They were featured in numerous media publications such as the San Antonio Current, Express News, The Edge Magazine and Meltdown Magazine.
On July 3, 2003, JOA played their last farewell bash at Sin 13 Bar, selling out on all their merchandise.
Entering into a new era, in early 2019, the three former members of JOA reunited with a new vibe
to create Saving Jackie, a Rap/Rock group with a message of redemption for new life.
Alongside former members, Front Woman/Vocalist Jenny 4C Ramirez, Drummer Anthony, and Bass Player John Cortez and new members, Jerry Ryan on Rhythm Guitar/Backing Vocals 2019-8/2021, Rick Garza on Lead Guitar/Backing Vocals.
After encountering life’s struggles and strife,
the group is back to share a message of how they overcame life’s major trials.
Their EP brings a rocking out message of victory and hope with songs like ‘My Faith is Larger’, ‘My Everything’ and ‘Silence the Storm’.
