"Sacramento's Jackpot portrays failure as a beautiful thing with their third effort, F+. Sounding like a mix between Supergrass, My Morning Jacket and Wilco, Jackpot assembles a solid album of tunes to drink to when feeling down.F+ starts off strongly with vocalist Rusty Miller grittily telling a tale of sadness and late-night walking on "Adventures Galore" and hits its high point with "Headlights," a five-minute rocker with twang. Towards the middle of the album, however, F+ loses steam. Songs like "Euphoria" and "Dizzy" are lackluster, downhearted tales that are easily tuned out. F+ finishes with the seven-minute "Charlie Watts is God," a Lennon-esque tribute to rock brightening up one's obsolete life.

While not quite alt-country, fans of Uncle Tupelo and Kings of Leon may find Jackpot worthwhile. Overall, F+ receives a B-, nothing earth shattering, but worth a listen."

"Russ Miller is hands down one of the most amazing musicians I know. He has continued to amaze me since the first day I met him when we where in eighth grade band together. I know few musicians who possess the innate talent that this man, and the musicians he plays with seem to possess. I not only recommend anything by Jackpot, I go so far as to say that it is musical genius that rivals the Beatles."
