The Jags were a British power pop band formed in 1978, best known for their hit single "Back of My Hand." The band was led by Nick Watkinson on vocals and guitar, with distinctive jangly guitar sound that drew comparisons to Elvis Costello. Despite their brief existence, the band had a significant impact on the new wave scene, and their music is often considered a defining example of the power pop genre. Their debut album, "Evening Standards," remains a staple in the power pop canon.
