about

"It’s Never Too Late" finds Jackie and The Treehorns expanding on their previous sound while exploring some new sonic territories. The eight songs represent the full musical pallet of the band and the songwriting has matured. The theme of the album explores the crossroads we all face when we realize we are not getting any younger, yet we still have a youthful exuberance that is now concerted with real-life experiences. Of course, all of this comes with the classic Jackie twists.
