LS Jack is a rock ensemble from Brazil that originated in 1997, initially featuring Marcus Menna on vocals, Sérgio Morel handling keyboards, Sérgio Ferreira playing guitar, Vitor Queiroz on bass, Alessandro Barros with the saxophone, and Bicudo on drums.
The band ceased activities in 2004 following health issues experienced by Menna after an unsuccessful liposuction surgery. They made a comeback in 2020, introducing Vinny as the lead singer.
Disbandment and return
On 1 July 2004, shortly before the planned release of a new album, Marcus Menna experienced a cardiac arrest triggered by a botched liposuction operation, which left him in a coma for two months. The album Jardim de Cores was subsequently released in November 2004 without any promotional efforts due to Menna’s medical condition. This situation led to the band's dissolution as he required an extended period of recovery. An attempted revival in 2005 with vocalist Fábio Allman did not achieve significant success.
In 2010, LS Jack reunited for a commemorative tour featuring Menna once again. Later, in February 2020, the band reformed with Vinny stepping in as the new frontman, following Menna’s decision to no longer perform with the group.
January 2021 saw the release of the EP titled LS Jack & Vinny, Volume 1.
The group embarked on a nationwide tour in 2022 to mark their 25th anniversary.
In 2023, Vinny left the band due to complications related to his vocal cords.
