JACKSON LAKE
LOST & FOUND : ALBUM Released 10/12/2021
Jackson Lake
On 10th December 2021, Leeds based country artist and songwriter, Jackson Lake will release his long awaited and highly anticipated brand new studio album, LOST & FOUND. His third album to date since the release of home recorded debut “Putting Out Fires” in 2015 followed by acoustic album “This Is How It Feels” in 2018. This album is by far Jackson’s most ambitious recording project yet.
IT FEELS LIKE COUNTRY TO ME...
The album began as a simple conversation about a possible creative collaboration between Jackson Lake and producer Matt Dunwell of Assembly Point Studios in Leeds. Three days later, the UK was plunged into a nationwide lockdown. The pair decided to record a single from opposite ends of Leeds which would become “Country To Me”, Jackson’s ode to some quite unrelatable stereotypical themes of US country music. The single drew lots of attention through the various music streaming services so it was decided to enlist the services of many of the pair’s talented friends who had been forced into musical hibernation due to the pandemic. This and the successful funding (actually more than double the target was reached) of the project from Jackson’s fan-base through the Kickstarter platform ensured that this album would far surpass previous releases.
WHY 7 SINGLES FROM AN ALBUM? WELL...
LOST & FOUND is a collection of songs co-written by Jackson Lake and Matt Dunwell. The decision was made in mid 2020 to drip-feed the songs out into the world to keep the interest of those who were eagerly awaiting due to the restrictions having an effect on the time we could spend in the studio. The 7th release from the project will hit the world on 26th November 2021 entitled “What Would You Say?”. Jackson is hoping to build on the growing success of the previous releases with the last single, “Lord Don’t Let Me Fall” reaching number 4 in the iTunes Country Chart back in March 2021. The songs from LOST & FOUND have so far racked up 60k streams across every continent except for Antarctica (there’s time yet!).
With the restrictions eased, work commenced at a pace and the rest of the 12-track album was completed in person at Assembly Point Studios with the remainder of songs planned to be released as intended, to be released on Jackson’s 38th birthday, 10th December.
Jackson is proud to be part of the rich and varied UK Country music scene and now that live music is returning, is looking forward to performing this collection of songs around the UK starting with a special album launch gig in Leeds on 19th December with an expanded band setup with support from fellow local Leeds musician, Chris Dover.
EXTRA! EXTRA! - READ ALL ABOUT IT!
From the first release “Country To Me” to the most recent single “What Would You Say?”, Jackson Lake has had featured articles in local (Yorkshire Evening Post, Telegraph and Argus) and national press (Evening Standard) and had radio airplay on numerous country radio stations in the UK, mainland Europe in Luxembourg, Norway and Germany and some US Country stations.
