“The band that just keeps going.”
The even-keeled ascent of The Jellybricks is living proof that lasting passion trumps flash-in-the-pan fame. A rock group in the classic two-guitars-bass-drums tradition, this Harrisburg, Pennsylvania-based crew persevered for two decades before claiming the spotlight with “Some Kind Of Lucky,” their first album for Wicked Cool Records. “The opportunity to make a new, better record is what always leads us back into the recording studio,” says guitarist/vocalist Larry Kennedy.
The Jellybricks began as a vehicle for Larry’s original songs in the mid-’90s but has steadily evolved across eight releases into a truly four headed collaborative force, with all four members writing and sharing lead vocals. “We’ve gotten really good at speaking the same language when it comes to collaborating.” says bassist/vocalist Garrick Chow.
Inspired by melodic rock ’n’ roll traditions from the ’60s British Invasion to ’90s alternative, their ear worm track record caught the attention of Stevie Van Zandt, founder of Wicked Cool Records and the Underground Garage radio properties, who elevated their 2012 track “Rock ’n’ Roll Suicide” and 2014’s “About The Weekend” to “Coolest Song in the World” status on Little Steven’s Underground Garage.
2019 saw the release of "Some Kind Of Lucky,” which included the song “Brooklyn,” notable for being the first track co-written by all four Jellybricks, and which received a nomination for Best Video at the Independent Music Awards. The album itself set a record with four songs earning the title of "Coolest Song in the World" in Little Steven’s Underground Garage. The Jellybricks' dedication was further recognized that year when they were honored with the Central PA Music Hall of Fame Best Rock Band award.
In February of 2025, the band released “Dreaming in Stereo,” produced by Grammy-winning producer Geoff Sanoff, and featuring guest appearances by guitarist Doug Gillard (Guided by Voices/Nada Surf) on the tracks “Monday’s Never” and “Enchanted I Am.” Critics have compared the new album’s blend of ‘60s melodic charm and ‘90s rock punch to Fountains of Wayne meets Replacements-style grit, and attest that “Dreaming in Stereo is pure power-pop bliss.”
