Band Bio

The Jupiter Archives is an indie rock band founded October 2009 in Vancouver, British Columbia. Jackie Harrison (vocal, guitar) heads the band, backed by Louis St. Croix (bass) and Quinn Delaney (guitar, keyboards) and Kat Erickson (drums). They are signed with 8755th Street Cafe Records.

BACKGROUND

Jackie Harrison (born January 12, 1989) - Born in Vancouver, Harrison was raised by her classical music professor father until the age of seventeen. After an early graduation from high school, Harrison began to write music reflecting her classical influences and the burgeoning alternative scene of the American west coast. Her unique rhythm attracted a small following, prompting her to broaden her musical repertoire to include independent sounds.

Louis St. Croix (born March 5, 1986) - Born in Columbus, Ohio, St. Croix was weaned on an eclectic realm of music. He quickly showed aptitude in alternative bass guitar, and spent the majority of his high school years in a band as the songwriter and bassist. Upon graduation, he graduated from college as a classical music major and resumed his life as a musician, eventually meeting Jackie Harrison in Seattle for a classical music symposium, creating the core of The Jupiter Archives.

Quinn Delaney (born June 24, 1987) - Born in Toronto, Ontario, Delaney was the son of a local record company manager, and in turn, was exposed to incredible amounts of music in his early childhood. He quickly developed an affinity for both the guitar and piano, and was able to master them by graduation from high school. He then travelled showcasing his musical talent and was contacted by St. Croix in January 2009 to join the band.

Kat Erickson (born October 1, 1988) - Born in New York, Erickson was a rambunctious child with a mischievous childhood. By graduation, Erickson had been transformed into a solid drummer with a knack for expressing herself through songwriting. She wrote a number of songs for Delaney's father's record company, and gained a reputation as a talented songwriter. She was contact by St. Croix and joined the band in late March 2009.

EARLY PROCEEDINGS
