Jackson Garrett has performed and recorded in Montreal, New York City, Dallas, Palm Springs and Los Angeles. 

Influenced early on in his career by The Beatles, Steely Dan, Santana, Michael Franks, Stevie Wonder and many 70's era artists, Jackson Garrett gravitated toward a jazzy sound as his music mellowed. 

In Palm Springs, CA he met Pat Rizzo, Andy Fraga, and Earl Brown, locals on the jazz scene with storied pasts, and his act soon became a fixture in the music scene.
