Our last gig of the series includes a set each from:
JACKSEN
Jacksen is an Mparntwe based artist, producer and DJ. After DJing at Bass in the Grass festival in Darwin earlier this year, Jacksen continues to cut his teeth in the Central Australian music scene with his original songwriting. Expect soul, funk and RnB influences intertwined with Jacksen’s distinctive sound for this acoustic solo set, as he sings about life as a young dad in Mparntwe. Jacksen played live shows at Desert Song Festival and Ghost Gums Rhythm and Blues last year, and and hosts a weekly community radio show ‘Cruise Control’ on 8CCC.
BEN SLIP
Rock-Soul-Country
An entertaining live act, performing Ben Slip Originals and a few classic covers. As a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Ben Slip performs with bass, drums and keys tracks he has recorded in the studio backing his live performance.
