A special limited edition crew neck is now available in our store!

Commemorating the 30th anniversary of Luscious Jackson’s album Natural Ingredients, it features the old school LJ logo from 1994 and is made in collaboration with Friends From New York, the collective keeping downtown's creative spirit alive.

Order Now!

Released in 1994, Natural Ingredients is Luscious Jackson’s debut full-length and a vibrant snapshot of 90s New York. Funky basslines, crisp beats, and cool, effortless hooks drive songs like “Citysong” and “Deep Shag,” creating an album that’s equal parts playful and hypnotic. Loose yet confident, it radiates downtown energy while showcasing the band’s unique voice. A colorful, groove-heavy record that remains just as fresh today.

We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our beloved friend and band member Viv on Tuesday. She had been in treatment for cancer for several years and developed a complication on Monday. We were not expecting this. She was a great friend and a gifted musician and choreographer, but it was being a partner to David and a mother to Nate and Rebecca that gave her the greatest joy.

We are devastated beyond words to lose our graceful sister.

Beautiful, original retro 90s graffiti artwork from the LP and CD, Fever In Fever Out. 

Luscious Jackson founding member Jill Cunniff showcased a new dimension of her many talents with her first exhibition of original artwork, Lyric and Word Paintings. The exhibition ran from Thursday, September 19-23, 2018 at 198 Allen Street in New York City.

The opening night event included a one night only acoustic set by Jill, performing songs spanning the Luscious Jackson catalogue, as well as from her 2007 solo album, City Beach.  

Commenting on the inspiration and process behind her paintings, Jill explained: "I've been painting my whole life. As a teenager, I used to paint and write songs kind of like a hand off, switching between the two over the course of an afternoon. I listen to music when I am doing artwork; it's a big part of the process. I'm influenced by New York City's streets and the posters and writings that pile up on top of each other, creating layers of color and text. I came of age in 1980s downtown NYC when graffiti and hip-hop met punk. Later, I was introduced to the work of Bay Area Figurative artists while studying painting at U.C. Berkeley, and their glowing landscapes also had a deep influence. So my paintings have elements that are both hectic and serene.”

Hi and happy holidays to everyone! Lots of creative projects coming in the new year!!!

Hi!

We are happy to be working on new music (an EP). It's in the formative stages.

As you may have noticed, we have only played New York City for the last few years. That's because most of us are based here. The live band has six people and it just costs too much for us to travel to other cities to perform. However, we are looking into new crowd sourcing platforms to make traveling possible.

We love making music and will continue to create our work, with an eye on new and forward thinking methods of getting it out there...

Peace,

LUSCIOUS JACKSON
