Jackson Heights recently released their second project since reforming, “This Thing Called Life,” to great reviews by the music industry. “These guys have a rich history but what they are doing now musically is the incredible. They have the best band on the road and are connecting with fans right where they live,†stated Matt Felts, Gateway Management.
