About
"A young performer musically wise beyond his years, adding a touch of soul to all of your
Pop, Rock, R&B favorites." 🎸🎶🎸🎤🎶🎹
This is just one of the many positive comments I have gotten, I like to play older music (60's, 70's, & 80's) with a touch of modern pop songs thrown in. Most people are surprised when they hear a 23-year old playing and singing all of their favorite hits from back in the day!
I have been performing music live professionally for over 10 years (since I was in High School... Yes, for real). I am a recent graduate of Berklee College of Music and have been trained by some of the best musicians in the world.
I play solo acoustic (Vocals with Guitar or Piano) and can also put together up to a 7 piece band to meet any needs your event may have. We can create a chill background listening atmosphere or we can host the party if that is what you are looking for!
Please reach out to me with any inquiries and questions, I would love to provide a price quote and help you create the event you are envisioning!

I contacted Jackson with fairly short notice before a celebration of life we had for my fiancé. He was professional and responsive throughout the whole process. He customized a playlist with us and learned a Weird Al song for us too, which everyone loved lol. He was so kind on top of being a wonderful musician. I'd definitely recommend booking him and would work with him again.

Jackson is such a wonderful artist! He played a 3 hour party for my mom’s 70th. Guests were all between 60-80 years old; he played the exact right type of music for this audience. In planning, Jackson was responsive and aligned with me on music that my mom would love. In some cases he learned new songs to accomodate my mom’s favorites. I would have had him stay for hours more. I’m definitely going to have him back for any type of party! His music was versatile across ages (my husband and I’m young kids loved listening to him). He made the party vibe and atmosphere. What a delight Jackson is. My guests wanted his contact info because of how much they loved his music. I would support Jackson’s music in any way I can!!!
He was punctual, communicated as often as I needed and played for 3 hours straight at the party!

I reached out to Jackson to sing us a few songs privately for me and my wife’s anniversary. He responded quickly, gave me fair pricing, and best of all, he was so excited to do the work! I spoke to a few artists on here who were almost doubled. The price of what Jackson quoted me. After all, it was just for two people and one hour. He showed up on time, did the songs I requested, and both of us thought he was a wonderful artist! He has a great voice, and hopefully he has a great future in the industry. I highly recommend him for any event because he was truly professional and responsive as well
Just to add, it was a surprise, and he coordinated perfectly with me to make it a surprise

Jackson was the luckiest find! We are so grateful. He performed for my outdoor birthday party. Jackson’s voice is beautiful. He plays guitar wonderfully. He was easy to work with prior to the event. Very responsive to all my communication. He was prompt, professional, and SO kind! We will definitely use him for any future events and gladly recommend his services. Thank you 1 million times, Jackson! It was a night to remember!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have a standard fee for solo performance for three hours.
Because every project is different, I'm happy to provide custom price quotes tiered for up to a 7-piece band. That way you can find the perfect balance for your budget and music entertainment needs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Usually the customer will email me first and then from there we will schedule a quick call to go over logistics.
After that I will issue out a contract and will ask for a 50% deposit to hold the date, then the balance is due the day of the performance.
Any questions and follow up calls are always welcomed once the date is confirmed.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a degree in Contemporary Writing and Production from Berklee College of Music as well as more than 10 years of professional performing experience.
