After several chance meetings bumping into each other at local watering holes between 2000 and 2002 and numerous ad hoc jam sessions together thereafter, the duo formed EIC in July 2002.

Since then, they have been regularly entertaining full-house crowds with their brand of infectious music covering bands like U2, Coldplay, Oasis, Jason Mraz, John Mayer and the Dave Matthews Band at Timbre, CM-PB, Balaclava and Wala Wala.

In December 2006, after going around the local bar circuit as a cover band, Jack & Rai decided to take up the challenge of releasing an album of self penned originals.

Collaborating with producer and A&R consultant, Amir Masoh and after a full year of planning, conceptualising and recording, the duo released their debut album ‘In Stores Now!’ in 2009.

It is now available in music stores and can be downloaded via iTunes as well.

Their album comprises 11 original tracks which relate their honest stories and experiences:

1. Beetle Girl
2. The Fa La La Song
3. Fiona
4. Contemplate
5. Us
6. Pixelated
7. Hurricane
8. Poof
9. Television Affair
10. Release Me
11. Prophet of Universal Love

Have a look at their music video of their song ‘Release Me’:

Jack & Rai have also written & performed several songs for TV including the opening theme for ‘Polo Boys’ and ‘As I Am’ (which I absolutely love), a song for the Mediacorp Ch5 drama series ‘Red Thread’.

Currently, they can be heard on air co-hosting a radio show with Jean Danker as well. They’re on Class 95FM every Monday and Friday from 7 -- 8pm.
