Producer & 2nd Throat: Jack Perry

In this business you’ve got to have an ear. Jack has two.

With ears so fine tuned he can actually tell the difference between the sound of pouring a Columbian and French Roast, Jack’s coffee consumption has inspired the compelling nature of Planetcheck production.

While his random access thought process has confused family members, clergy, and certainly possibly yourself, it has contributed a distinct and renewable energy to each Planetcheck piece.

Jack’s use of sustainable editing and steam assisted lattes make Planetcheck come alive.

Listen closely to each piece, and you can hear the wind beneath his keys.
