Join us in the art gallery for intimate performances by Jackson\ Wilson Duo + Michael Dalton, hosted by the Full Circle Festival.
Andrew Jackson and Sam Wilson have been exploring the interplay of trombone and guitar since 2014. Upon meeting, both musicians were searching for a setting to explore jazz in a less traditional format, which has led them to develop a common musical language and create an original duo sound. While both are acclaimed musicians and composers guided by a jazz perspective, they bring a myriad of influences to the project with repertoire extending from standards by the greats of the past such as Billy Strayhorn, to folk covers by the likes of Nick Drake and original compositions. There is a wide palette of sound for listeners to connect with. Their live shows have been described by audiences as ethereal, calming, unexpected, and like sitting in a sound-bath. They released their debut album 'New Doors' on January 28th, 2023.
“What is to be experienced when we pass through 'New Doors'? This is the question that is explored by the Jackson\Wilson Duo and their debut album. Exploring the interplay of trombone and guitar with a desire to push beyond what is familiar and reach for that which we cannot see, what we have not heard before."
Dalton's music incorporates intricate guitar w/ powerful melody primarily in the folk/roots tradition. He is also the frontman and songwriter for the Transatlantic Zodiac Ensemble and guitarist for Donald MacLennan. Michael is currently working on a new batch of songs with producer/collaborator Mark Adam.
