Jack's Mannequin was an American rock band formed in 2004, led by Andrew McMahon, the vocalist, pianist, and primary songwriter. The project began as a side pursuit for McMahon, who was already known at the time as the frontman for the band Something Corporate. The band's music is a vibrant blend of alternative rock and pop elements, characterized by heartfelt lyrics and engaging piano melodies. Jack's Mannequin's narrative is marked by personal challenges and triumphs, most notably McMahon’s battle with leukemia, diagnosed shortly before the release of their debut album.

Their discography echoes a journey of personal growth and resilience. "Everything In Transit," released in 2005, was critically acclaimed and laid a solid foundation for the band's identity, combining catchy pop sensibilities with introspective songwriting. The album's 10th-anniversary edition underscores its enduring appeal to fans. Follow-up releases like "The Glass Passenger," which candidly chronicled McMahon's struggles and recovery, and subsequent albums "People and Things" with deluxe editions offering more content for the fans, further solidified Jack's Mannequin's place in the hearts of their listeners. Despite the band's disbandment in 2012, their music continues to resonate, with McMahon often performing their beloved songs on tour under his own name, connecting with audiences and sharing the legacy of Jack's Mannequin.
