Just Jack 'prefers smaller venues'

Just Jack has revealed that he prefers testing out his new material in smaller venues.

The 'Starz In Their Eyes' singer, who releases new album All Night Cinema on July 6, claimed that performing to a smaller audience can help gage their reaction better.

"I think if you're playing a song like 'The Day I Died' for the first time it's obviously better to do it in a smaller venue because you've got a captive audience and a lot of it's about the words, you can really put it across," he told STV.

"Obviously at a festival it's a little bit more difficult, but people have been reacting to that song so well, because of the story, the content, there's a punchline, and I think the chorus is just not at all what you expect."

Describing his new single further, he added: "When you hear the tune, it’s quite lilting, it’s a bit of an odd song really, but people have been really getting into it."

Just Jack's previous album Overtones reached number two in January 2007.
