Ballarat born pianist returning home to launch his debut instrumental solo piano album With Love. Combining jazz teachings with classical, ambient, and contemporary music, Jackson plays piano as a tool to express deep contemplation and meditations on his life. Coming from a background of learning jazz piano as a child and playing in original pop and contemporary groups for the last 15 years the outcome of this album is a unique juxtaposition of a foundation in jazz met with melodic sensibilities of pop music and strong inspirations of ambient classical music. Come join Jackson for an intimate Sunday afternoon performance on the grand piano, with a special guest announced soon…

Guest Artist

Joining Jackson is the acclaimed, award-winning Iranian-Australian musician Gelareh Pour. Known for her mastery of the Persian Kamancheh and Qeychak, and her distinctive voice, Gelareh draws on her deep roots in Persian classical music and poetry while blending diverse influences and musical exploration to create her unique sound of Neo-Persian Experimentalism.
