About Tenacious D
The duo comprised of Jack Black and Kyle Gass started playing together in Kyle’s studio apartment on Cochran Ave in Los Angeles. No one could have ever dreamed of where the band’s genius would take them, but take them it did… The band had a variety series on HBO that aired in 1999. Their self-titled album was released in the fall of 2001 with Epic Records and was quickly certified at Gold-selling status and has since been certified Platinum. The duo completed their first feature film together – Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny – for New Line Cinema, which was released in November 2006. The album ‘Rize of the Fenix’ followed in 2012, receiving a Grammy nomination for Best Comedy Album. The D rang in 2023 in Las Vegas with two back-to-back sold-out shows. Earlier this year they embarked on first leg of the Spicy Meatball tour, performing in 24 cities and selling out the O2 in hours. They released the critically acclaimed ‘Video Games,’ their first new original song in five years, which is undeniably one of the greatest songs in the band’s extensive catalogue of hits. It was accompanied by a brilliant, animated video for the song, created by Chris ‘Oney Plays’ O’Neil and Adam Paloian, an Emmy-nominated director. The music video and track went viral, amassing over 27 million views and earning them 1.3 million followers on YouTube. They even performed their new single live at The Hollywood Bowl for The Game Awards. They took the internet by surprise once again by releasing a recorded version of their viral, fan-favourite live cover of Chris Isaak’s ‘Wicked Game.’ A video for the cover of ‘Wicked Game,’ directed by long time D collaborator Taylor Stephens and features the dynamic duo in a glorious, romantic romp by the sea. It has been viewed by over 7 million people, marking another viral moment for the group. In 2023 and beyond Tenacious D continue their quest to spread the message of rock n roll across the world and firmly retain their title as one of the greatest rock bands in the world. Ever.
