Richard Jankovich

Richard Jankovich isn't just a musician; he's a sonic architect, a melody crafter and a veteran of the music industry's ever-shifting landscape for three decades. From indie grit to alternative anthems, Jankovich has carved a unique path, leaving a trail of unforgettable sounds in his wake. Think of him as a musical chameleon, shifting effortlessly between projects like the experimental indie electronica of Burnside Project, the driving power of Big Mother Gig, the remix wizardry of Pocket, and now, the fresh sonic explorations of his latest endeavor, Long A.

"Cue The Pulse To Begin" by Burnside Project wasn't just a song; it was the heartbeat of Showtime's Queer as Folk, a track that resonated across continents, climbing the Japanese Top 40, snagging a BMI Cable Award in 2005, and even catching the discerning ear of Cameron Crowe, earning a 2004 Shortlist Award nomination. As Pocket, his reimagining of Radiohead's take on Björk's "Unravel" earned a nod from Will Hermes in the 2007 Village Voice Pazz and Jop poll. Big Mother Gig’s 2021 LP Gusto exploded onto the scene, earning rave reviews from the likes of Stereogum, NPR, and American Songwriter, propelling the band onto a three-week US tour supporting Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears. Jankovich's music isn't confined to albums and stages; it's woven into the fabric of film and television, gracing soundtracks of movies like The Medallion, Pink Skies Ahead, Ira and Abby, and Seamless, and echoing through countless shows on NBC, CBS, ABC, and MTV.
