Keep reading below to learn more about Jackson!<\/p>\n Jackson was born in Odenton, Maryland. When he turned 18, he moved out of his hometown to pursue singing and songwriting. Jackson was living in a “one-room shack” in his grandfather’s backyard when he decided to move, according to\u00a0Country Now<\/em><\/a>. His father encouraged him to play music and so he did just that!<\/p>\n In April 2023, Jackson performed at the Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California. Luke Bryan<\/strong><\/a>, Kane Brown, and Chris Stapleton<\/strong><\/a> headlined the three-day music festival.<\/p>\n Jackson received a nomination for New Male Artist of the Year at the 2023 Academy of Country Music Awards<\/a>. He lost to Zach Bryan<\/strong><\/a>. The other nominees were Ernest<\/strong>, Dylan Scott<\/strong>, Nate Smith<\/strong>, and Bailey Zimmerman<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Jackson’s song “Don’t Come Lookin” was featured in season 4, episode 7 of\u00a0Yellowstone<\/em><\/a> which aired in December 2021. Jackson revealed his reaction to his music appearing on the hit TV series in an interview with Wide Open Country.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n “When my agent in L.A. told me my knees buckled a little bit…She was like ‘Yeah man, your song’s gonna be playing over a scene with Costner in it,'” he said. “It was really awesome. It was just Luke [Dick] and I on that song and I remember plain as day when we wrote it.”<\/p>\n Jackson announced his first tour, the\u00a0Head Full Of Noise Tour<\/em>, in November 2023. The tour kicks off January 12 and runs through April. Jackson is visiting multiple U.S. cities including Denver, Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville and New York.
