Long Bio: Relaxed, raw, and steeped in classic acoustic troubadours like James Taylor and Jim Croce, Jackson Howard plays folkified soft rock with as much attention to detail in the fingerstyle guitar as in the lyrics. A recent transplant to Philadelphia, Jackson has performed at numerous venues around Philadelphia and has toured extensively, performing in 18 U.S. States, Canada, Iceland, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands.
After completing a PhD in Exercise Physiology and spending 2.5 years conducting research on behavioral treatment for obesity, Jackson made the decision to leave academia and concentrate on music full time. This major shift in life trajectory invited a unique perspective that colors his songs.
In 2017, Jackson released “Just For the Mystery”,recorded at Dark Horse Studios in Franklin, TN. The album has received radio play on over 90 stations across the U.S., and has been licensed by MTV, E!, Discovery, and Netflix for use in their programming. He recently completed a new EP “New Day Begun”, set to be released on May 10th, 2019 at The Locks @ Sona.
