Jack Cutter is a San Francisco based acoustic steel string guitarist, composer and music producer.
Influenced by folk, classical, Hawaiian slack key, blues, rock, ambient and country, he melds the old with new for a meditative listen; especially mesmerizing is Cutter’s ethereal, high-pitched harmonics. He is currently performing live as a solo artist as well as recording/producing for ambient collaboration Satya Sky.
Jack migrated from Buffalo, New York, in the 70s having minored in music at State University of New York at Buffalo. While at University, he played in bar bands on the side. After relocating to California, Jack went into studio engineering and became partner/owner of Razor's Edge Recording in San Francisco for 10 years, He now has his own private studio where he composes his albums. ​
In 2011, he released his first album, Into Byzantium. In 2013, he released Beyond Byzantium. ​ Fast forward to fall 2014: Jack is playing his quintessential tune, ‘Gift of Our Fathers’ when he was spotted by 40 Thieves producer Layne Fox. In the subsequent months, two of Jack’s original acoustic pieces were given the 40 Thieves treatment, and—having fallen in love with the cosmic boogie (of 40 Thieves classic ‘Backward Love’)—Jack felt he would love nothing more than to write a tune with them. This resulted in the reworking of Jack's two tracks from Into Byzantium (Serpent Strut and Gift Of Our Fathers). ​ Then, Brighton UK-based (now Berlin-based) singer and producer David Harks joined in on the Serpent Strut track to add inspired vocals to the local legend’s typically solo instrumental music. The co-written result, titled Serpent Strut (feat David Harks), melds the old with new for a meditative listen; still featuring is Cutter’s ethereal harmonics. The newly produced version of Serpent Strut and Gift Of Our Fathers was released in 2015 as a vinyl single on the UK's Claremont 56 label. ​​ In 2016, he released his third solo album In The Realm Of The Hungry Ghost. ​​ Jack continues to live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area and we are thrilled to bring him to you.
