Lovin the Mud
At the age of ten Tom Jackson knew he wanted to be a singer,
taking the broom from the kitchen and pretending he was on stage in the living
room, with his family for an audience. " I remember listening to John Anderson
on the radio, and thinking to myself, I want to be just like him"
Singer,
songwriter, musician... but above all Tom Jackson is an entertainer.
He compels an audience as though he has been on stage all his life.
Tom's brand of music is a new driving, aggressive country likened to
a combination of Jason Aldean meets Charlie Daniels. His high energy
music and performances are best noted in songs such as "In the Sticks", a song about livin'
it up in the country or "Swamp Justice" which details a romp through
the Florida swamps chasing down some moonshine. Tom's most popular songs
range from the mud slingin', four wheelin', redneck anthem, "Lovin the
Mud" to a fan favorite ballad entitled "First Time Again", which is a
touching tribute to a love that never loses its spark. Tom has a diverse
background that gives his style of country music a rock edge that is
sure to keep you on your feet.
With his initial musical calling as a
drummer, Tom wanted more, so he began to write music and found his voice
both through written lyrics and on the mic. Tom is now a powerful lead
vocalist with a range most singers would die for. His deep toned Josh
Turner-like vocals can be heard bellowing out of "Southern Thang", a
tribute to the "real" South Florida or "Up to the Depths" a powerful
ballad with a meaning deep below the surface. "Something Goin' On" and "She's
Not the One" are two relationship songs that come straight from Tom's
own past and display the warmth of his mid-range tones that have been
compared to Craig Morgan. |

Keep It Country
Their meanings mirror each other in that one is a relationship
where everyone says it won't work and the other is when you realize for
yourself it just isn't going to work. With a new twist on the same old cheatin'
song, "It's
Your Lie" is a great example of Tom's sense of humor about when a girl does the
cheating. This upbeat, in-your-face, call it like you see it kind of tune is
exactly what his fans have come to expect. After a song with cheating and lies
you can move on to a new love with "Take a Look at That Girl" that has
a catchy hook that will keep you humming long after your first listen.
