Win tickets to The JD Set tour

Jack Daniel's love of music goes way back to 1892, when the whiskey-making legend formed the Silver Cornet Band, a group of distillery workers and townsfolk from Lynchburg, Tennessee. These days JD's moved on from Mr Jack's band to the JD Set, featuring bands on the brink which over the past few years has seen the likes of CSS, Wombats, Foals, Futureheads and Kate Nash to name but a few. JD Sets began in 2002 and have seen over 96 bands perform to date fast establishing themselves as the first port of call for great live music. This year is no exception, and the first tour saw Stranglers legend Hugh Cornwell team up with the likes of punk rockers The Paddingtons, Dangermouse-approved and produced The Shortwave Set and South London art-rockers Art Brut. Don't worry if you missed the first two tours - you can check out the pictures and audio on this site to see the full line-up.
