John Jackson (musician)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Jackson is a musician and record label executive, known for being the guitarist for the Jayhawks.[1][2] He plays guitar, mandolin and violin.[1]

Before joining the Jayhawks, Jackson had been the senior vice president of A&R at Legacy Recordings where he had co-produced The Jayhawks' “Best Of” album.[3] Jackson spoke to Gary Louris when he was on a solo acoustic tour and asked if he could open for him and began to play with the band.[3] Jackson has described the Jayhawks as "the best American band of the last 30 years."[3] Jackson's connections led to the band getting to work with Ray Davies for their Americana album.[4] Jackson co-produced the band's tenth studio album Back Roads and Abandoned Motels at Flowers Studio in Minneapolis.[5]

Since 2010 Jackson has been the vice president of A&R and Content Development for Sony's Commercial Music group.[2] As part of his work, he oversaw the Elvis Presley back catalog, as well as the catalogs of Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash.[6][7] He worked on a box set for the 50th anniversary of the 1970 Presley sessions, and he’s supplied the master tapes for Baz Luhrmann's Presley biopic.[6]

Early life

Jackson went to Indiana University where he majored in the history of rock music, creating what IU calls "the world's first bachelor's degree in rock history."[7]
