Get Smart about Stoopid; Slightly Stoopid AND Jack Johnson

 

 

 

 

Jack Johnson is an artist that has been around since the early 90’s  Although he has been around that long it isn’t

 
since around the summer of 2005 that he became famous. His music cannot be compared to many other artists today. 
 

There is only one band he can be compared to, and that is G-Love. There are three people in Jack Johnson.

Jack Johnson is obviously the front man of Jack Johnson. He plays the guitar with a rhythm style and is the lead local.

 

Merlo Podlewski is the bassist. He also writes some of the songs and sometimes is a back up vocal. Unlike some bands where the bass is the main part of the

music, Merlo justs plays a rhythm to keep the beat to keep everyone on time. He also compliments the guitar part in some songs, songs such

  as the following: Dreams be Dreams, Cookie Jar, and Taylor.The final member of Jack Johnson is Adam Topol. Adam Topol is the Drums and piano of Jack Johnson. Just like Merlo Podlew Adam Topal only keeps a beat. Adam does not have any drums solos or main part in a song, he simply keeps the beat.
  IN general Jack Johnson is the most important part of the instrumentals and pretty much the whole band, but without Merlo and Adam, it would not be a complete band, it would just be a solo project. A little known fact about the members of Jack Johnson is that they all once were or currently are professional surfers. They also own their own island, which is where they shoot most of their music videos.
