He's part Robbie Williams and part Lily Allen, with a healthy dose of Brit rapper The Streets.
Twenty-four-year-old Jack Allsopp -- a.k.a. Just Jack -- earned attention at home in the U.K. with his debut "The Outer Marker," but with his sophomore effort, he's got his sights set on American shores. "Overtones", which hits stores today, slaloms in between nearly every pop genre of the last four decades, without ever settling into a niche (in a good way).
We love the breezy '80s feel of "Writers Block," the bouncy ska-lite of "Starz in Their Eyes" and the glittery disco synths of "No Time." Stream songs here but note that language makes this music not worksafe.
