Singer-Songwriter James Jackson, based in Liverpool, drives to create a sense of connection and comfort in an age of utter division. 

He developed his honest and empathetic songwriting style in his early teens by listening to the records of Nick Drake, Joni Mitchell and Damien Rice. Inspired by their use of alternative tunings and heartfelt lyrics, his music comes organically alongside his passion and educational experience studying music technology.

At just 18 years old, James has shown his eagerness to establish a place in the creative industries. Through his involvement with BBC Introducing, experiences such as Highest Point Festival and a Live Session at Media City, he has developed a confident and professional work ethic as a result of these opportunities.

Continuing his study of music in Liverpool, James currently is developing his songwriting portfolio and polishing his live performance set – planning to release a live EP at the end of 2021.
