Kingston’s multi-instrumentalist Christopher Jackson is thrilled to announce the release of his new single, "Best of Me".

This production evokes notes of seventies roots rock, alt-country, and blends folky Canadiana/Americana with his own twist. It encapsulates events and experiences in Jackson’s life over the last few years.

““Best of Me” was written about making changes in my life and moving forward,” says Jackson. “Not letting anyone bring me down or get in my way.” Listen on Spotify here: open.spotify.com/track/6WMIfiN5K9OeNo9zQNm1yH

With over 30 years under his belt as a working musician in a variety of bands, Jackson has built a reputation as a true entertainer. He is known for his banter, audience interaction and impromptu musical collaborations.

The album is produced in collaboration with recording engineer Paul “Doc” Halladay. All the vocals and the majority of the instrumentation, including electric/acoustic guitar, bass guitar, drums and mandolin, is performed by Jackson.

The album also features guest musicians Burke Carroll on pedal steel, Matt Weidinger on piano/Hammond organ, Shane Guse on fiddle, Matt Wray on Dobro, Mike Verner on trumpet, and Spencer Evans on piano/clarinet.

Listeners will find “Best Of Me'' to be authentic, real and relatable. “I believe people can relate to this song and make it their own because all we really want is to be the best we can be,” says Jackson.

About Christopher Jackson
Multi-instrumentalist and solo artist Christopher Jackson was born in Chatham, Ontario and is now based in Kingston, Ontario. After 30 years as a working musician in a variety of bands and session recordings - and six years of entertaining listeners at the popular “Chris Jackson & Friends” Friday night show at venue BluMartini – Jackson decided it was time to put all his experiences together and see where his own writing and music might take him. His debut album carries that personal connection felt at his live shows into his songs.
