简介
In today’s musical climate, change is often dictated by the instability and turmoil within the recording industry. However, as Jackson Rohm can attest, change in an artist can happen organically through experience, musical growth and simply being willing to try new things. With 1200 shows under his belt and over 14,000 albums sold, Jackson Rohm has moved from playing predominantly pop/rock to finally finding a suitable niche in country music with his new release, “Long Way From Moving On”. Recorded in Nashville, the album has garnered much early release praise and is Jackson’s biggest production to date. “In the past, we’ve recorded the songs with more of a piecemeal approach in the studio, assembling each song part by part. First, we would lay down drums and bass and overdub other instruments later. But this project was different. We cut live with some of the best musicians on the planet and their ability to work creatively together made a huge difference.” Many people have asked Jackson, whose success has enabled him to fill his tour schedule many months in advance, ‘why the move to country?’ “I’ve heard for years that my vocal tone and delivery would work well with country music and I’ve always loved steel guitars, fiddles and those big country harmonies. When I finally decided to throw my hat into the ring, I was eager to get into that “storytelling mode” and write a bunch of country songs.” Early critics have embraced Rohm’s move, calling the album “a fun ride” and “a showcase of Jackson’s strong, clear singing voice and excellent songwriting ability.” One of the most powerful aspects of song is its ability to transcend t thoughts and lend itself to interpretation through lyric. The songs that make up “Long Way From Moving On” are no different. “The greatest strength of this record has to be the lyrics and the fact that the listener will hopefully find the songs relatable”, Rohm adds. “The title track, for example, deals with something we’ve all gone through: you get dumped by your girl, she moves on with her life in no time and you somehow can’t get over her. It’s a simple theme. However, as an album title, it has another meaning for me. I wanted to convey that I’m really just hitting my stride as an artist, writer, musician and performer. I still love making music and I’m definitely a long way from moving on.”
