Jacksonhill Releases Jackson Hill

Northern California songwriter Jacksonhill has just released a new album, titled Jackson Hill; I’m not sure if that’s a self-titled record or not, but it’s surely something that I’ve been enjoying over the weekend. I chose the song below as it introduces the fragility in the vocals that are present on the voice, although there’s ownership in those notes as the track grows into itself. Musically, the track operates with a classic tension build, letting the vocals raise the energy until the song crashes down with a heavier bit of weight and the vocals settle for just a bit. The cycle rinses and repeats, but the latter half is all about the explosion and destruction of the track in the end, hinting at the peaks and valleys within the whole of this new LP.
