Jack Stauber (1996.04.06)
Years Active: 2012 - present
Associated Acts: Jack Stauber's Micropop, Joose, Zaki, Catdash, Matei Jordache, Turkey Dinner
Vocal Range: E2 - D6
{Vocal Summary}The one word I would think to describe Jack Stauber as is "distinctive"; no matter what you might think about what you're listening to, you know for certain that it's him. His signature sound, so to speak, is a strange mix of nostalgia-laden synthpop and bedroom pop, with some traces of folk and indie rock thrown in occasionally. As one of many among a rising aesthetic featuring unusual and sometimes bizarre imagery and music (names such as Bill Wurtz and Lemon Demon come to mind), Jack has managed to stand out with his specific brand of "weird", gathering a rather large audience by Internet standards and having a few videos and songs go viral in the process.
Jack's voice more or less fits the same style as his music, that is to say it tends to be erratic and flexible. Jack takes on a wide variety of voices throughout much of his music, from breathy-sounding lows to soft head voice to high, yelpy falsetto, and everything in between. As a whole, Jack seems to be somewhat lower-placed, tending to sound most comfortable around the lower third and upper second octaves, but still having a fairly expansive high range to match, both in terms of belting and falsetto. If you haven't been able to tell, it's hard to say much definitively about his voice just by virtue of how he puts it to use. With all of that said, his voice and music (particularly his later releases and "micropops", as he calls them) have maintained their own charm, and have definitely left their mark on the microgenre they belong to.
