Pop-rap duo Jack and Jack - and their opener Logan Henderson - are playing an acoustic concert at Lake Winnepesaukah at 3 p.m. on Saturday, May 26.

If those names aren't familiar to you, then you probably aren't a teenage female or the parent of one.

Jack and Jack is the duo of Jack Johnson and Jack Gilinsky, originally from Omaha, Nebraska, now living in Los Angeles. The two met on the first day of kindergarten - reportedly wearing the same shirt - and have been friends ever since.

As a comedy duo, they began posting 6-second videos on social-media app Vine. The short satires included lip-syncing music videos, short parodies of popular songs, the two of them as over-concerned parents or their nerd alter-egos Eric and Winston.

Their clips evolved into music videos, launching their music careers. Their newest single is "Beg."

The duo also has released two mobile app games through a partnership with mobile games company SkyVu Entertainment. Their first game, Let It Goat, got over a million downloads within the first month. That success prompted Jack and Jack to develop a second game, Jack and Jack Vines Puzzle Game.

Henderson is most familiar as a member of Big Time Rush pop band. He played Logan Mitchell on the hit Nickelodeon series of the same name. Henderson released his single, "Bite My Tongue," last fall.

The singers' appearances are presented by Entercom for 103.7 Kiss FM's Coolest Kickoff to Summer, in partnership with EPB Fiber Optics and Lake Winnepesaukah

"To maintain the commitment of being 'Chattanooga's No. 1 for New Music,' 103.7 Kiss FM is once again bringing some of the newest and hottest Top 40 talent to the area," said Nichole Hartman, senior vice president and market manager, Entercom Chattanooga.

"This year's performances are expected to raise the bar by delivering not one, but two of pop music's fastest-growing stars, Jack and Jack and Logan Henderson," she said.

The concert is free with regular paid admission to Lake Winnie of $34.95 plus tax.
