"At around the age of 24, he began playing music at night at many dance and social clubs located in the greater Wenatchee and Chelan areas. The Jack Day Trio and later Jack Day and His Band were well known nightclub icons for many years and are still fondly remembered by people of that era. Later, because of his mom exposing him early on and [his wife] Joyce's later prompting, Jack turned his music focus to worshipping his Lord, playing in his local church and eventually recording three Christian albums, winning several Christian music awards in the process. ... He and Joyce also began a prison music ministry, traveling twice a month for several years to play music in the Washington State Penitentiary at Monroe." - Jack Day obituary, Wenatchee World, Feb 13, 2011
"The Jack Day Trio played around Wenatchee at the Elks, The Orchard, and Lake Chelan at Hughes Steak House." - Roger Quesnell, July 2007 correspondence with pnwbands.com website [courtesy of webmaster Sam Carlson]
