Jack's Mannequin, Fun, and Vedera at First Avenue
Andrew McMahon is best known as the frontman for California pop-punk band Something Corporate and, more recently, the similar but more piano-driven Jack's Mannequin, which has become his primary creative vehicle since Something Corporate went on hiatus in 2004. In 2005, McMahon was diagnosed with leukemia just as Jack's Mannequin released its debut, Everything In Transit. He later recovered, but the group's 2008 record, The Glass Passenger, was understandably more introspective and somber after what he'd gone through, a healing process that was documented with the 2009 DVD Dear Jack.
