- Carl Barat and The Jackals, The Libertines
When Libertines frontman Carl Barât began working on the follow-up to his self-titled 2010 solo debut, he realized he needed the collaborative spirit of a band for this set of songs. After posting an ad on Facebook seeking potential members that drew thousands of interested musicians, he settled on the lineup of guitarist Billy Tessio, bassist Adam Claxton, and drummer Jay Bone. Dubbed the Jackals, Barât and the band went into the studio with the Bronx’s Joby J. Ford as producer. Subsequently their debut album Let It Reign was released to much acclaim.
