Hailing from the heart of Kentucky bluegrass country, Nathan Lee Jackson came of age during country music’s new wave of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s. But along with the music of Garth Brooks and Alabama, Jackson was exposed to the sounds of Motown and the contemporary Christian songs he heard in church. Recognizing his call to music, Jackson moved to Nashville shortly after high school graduation and began songwriting in earnest. He caught the ear of Jeff Glixman, famed producer of 1970’s progressive rock band Kansas and the two teamed up to produce Jackson’s debut album, Small Town Rain. Jackson plays piano on the recording and had a hand in writing each of the 13 songs on his debut album including his current single, “Desperate Man.”
