Greg Jacks, the former member of Multi-platinum Grammy, MTV, and NRJ Award-Winning-Band, Superbus, has teamed up with Phoenix-based Singer/Songwriter, Evan Berg to create Penny Billionaires, an electronic-fused hard rock duo garnering influences from bands such as Linkin Park, Disturbed, 3 Days Grace, and Papa Roach. Penny Billionaires has been working with Grammy Award Winning Engineer, Jeremy Parker (Slipknot, Disturbed, Evanescence, etc.) to release the band's first 4 singles. Taking inspiration from his work, the band set out to produce their next single on their own, dropping their fifth single, " Invincible" on January 6th, 2023.
Evan Berg started off writing electronic pop songs and performing them in various clubs in The Phoenix area where he met Greg Jacks while opening for a local band on a Thursday night. There the two hit it off as they later collaborated on some of Evan’s pop songs. While Greg’s Band, Superbus was planning on their 20th-anniversary tour in Europe, the 2020 pandemic put the operation to a standstill. That left Greg and Evan in quarantine to create an entirely original project.
The two wrote a handful of songs originally dubbing the collection as Electronic Dance Metal where they would then reach out to Arizona engineer and producer, Jeremy Parker to take on the project. By the time the first set of singles was complete, Greg and Evan decided to go all-in on this exciting new project, leaving their pasts behind them.
