Jack and the Spare Hearts is a Kitchener-based 5-piece band who play original tunes with a touch of R&B, a hit of New Wave, a heap of funk, and pinch of Ska—and an attitude that says we are here to enjoy ourselves. And feel free to do the same! 

Jack Cooper, songwriter and frontman, brings a love of 70’s New
Wave. Stax, and Motown to a band who’s been around- a couple of
horns, some great guitar, and a solid rhythm section.

The result is the R&B romp ‘Worst Kept Secret: or funk-based
tirade ‘All Been Fooled Again; or the 50s-sty1e horns and camp of
‘Selfie Love’. or the jangly pop of ‘Morning Girl’.

A live album featuring highlights from shows at The Jazz Room was completed at the end of 2024. An official release party is planned for June 2025.
