Jackyl is an American rock band known for blending Southern metal with elements of hard rock. Formed in 1991, the band is led by Jesse James Dupree, whose distinctive chainsaw solos contribute to their unique sound. Jackyl gained national attention with their self-titled debut album, which included the hit single "The Lumberjack." Their unorthodox musical approach, combined with a high-energy stage presence, has secured their place in the annals of rock music history.
