Born out of a shared passion for music, Jack’s Maze had humble beginnings back in 1986 when founding members Robin Ross and Frank Cinquegrana collaborated to record their first song, “Friend From The Heart”. The band evolved and experimented, eventually solidifying their lineup with the additions of Scott Cowan on rhythm guitar, Joe Torres on bass, Joe Granowski on drums, Bill Snyder on lead guitar, and Jim Gentilin on guitar, culminating in a unique blend of progressive rock that captivated audiences.
In 1995, the band took a hiatus from music to pursue other things in life. The band faced challenges with the loss of members Bill and Jim. In 2022, Jack’s Maze decided to make a comeback to music. Remaining steadfast in their dedication to their craft and the love of music, current members Robin, Frank, Scott and Joe T. carry the torch forward, infusing new energy and creativity into Jack’s Maze.
Originally hailing from New Jersey, the band now finds inspiration in the picturesque landscapes of Pennsylvania, where they continue to record their music at Robin's recording studio, Baa Baa Leaf Studio.. Nature, people, love, and even death serve as powerful muses for their songwriting, reflecting a deep connection to the world around them.
Drawing influence from iconic bands like Rush, Boston, and Pink Floyd, Jack’s Maze has honed a signature sound that marries hard and progressive rock with poignant, melodic undertones. Their music resonates with audiences, evoking a range of emotions and experiences that speak to the universal power of music.
With a renewed sense of purpose and a commitment to spreading the love of music, Jack’s Maze looks towards the future with optimism and determination. Their journey is a testament to the transformative power of music and the enduring spirit of collaboration and creativity.
