Jack’s Mannequin to Play Final Show this November at Dear Jack Benefit

The third annual Dear Jack Foundation benefit introduces an evening with Jack’s Mannequin, which will thrive as their last performance together as a band. The final set will take place on Nov. 11, 2012 at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles, Calif.

In regards to their last show, frontman Andrew McMahon expressed:

“These are not easy words to write but I truly believe that the ending of this chapter will give birth to something beautiful. I cannot thank you all enough for the support you have given, not just to me, but also to Bobby, Jay, Mikey and Jon over the last 7 years. We are eager to take the stage on the 11^th and play these songs that have scored nearly a decade of our lives, for you, the people who have given them a home. It feels both fated and appropriate that the profits from this show go to supporting young adults affected by cancer.”

Jack’s Mannequin originally started as Andrew McMahon’s solo project in 2004, already being a member of Something Corporate. Both rock bands formed in Orange County, Calif.
