Jackson Mathod
30-year old trumpet player Jackson Mathod studied Jazz at Guildhall, where he developed his undeniable skills on the instrument and sensibility for songwriting. However, never feeling fully embedded in the jazz world, he quickly went onto the session musician circuit, playing for high profile artists such as Stormzy or Jordan Rakei. A performer at heart, he started his own function band in parallel, with the role of frontman to fulfil his long love for singing. “I’m really trying to bridge the gap between me as an instrumentalist and a singersongwriter" says Jackson.
Fast forward to 2019, Jackson was asked to be featured artist on 'Make You Feel' by Fika, where he laid his vibrant trumpet sound on the alt-soul hit."This is a thing I really enjoy in music. Improvising in different styles. Embracing the diversity of my instrument". The success of this track gave him the push he needed to start writing music under his own name, with one main objective : producing intelligent and organic dance music that is enriching for both the body and soul. After a series of successful singles in 2021, he released his first album ‘Travels In A Confined Space’ to public and critic acclaim.
