March Shows & UStream

Hey again!
I have been working really hard in the last few weeks booking shows, fund raising for my cd, and trying to come up with some cool promotional things to do. Here's one of the things I've decided to do. I have a U Stream account and I am gonna try to do a 30 min. live show once a month or once every 6 weeks. I'm still working out the details, but I think it would be cool to have the fans input on the set list for each show, and then maybe have a 10-15 min chat/Q&A time after the show. Please spread the word and keep your eyes open for more details as I get this going! Should be fun!

Also, with 2 weeks left in March (time is flying!), I wanted to give you a heads up on my shows the rest of March and beginning of April. Next week, I have hooked up with Stephen Pointer to play some acoustic shows on Tues. the 30th at The Office Lounge in Weatherford, wed. the 31st at Eskimo Joe's in Stillwater and then I'll be opening up for The Stephen Pointer Band on Sat. Apr. 3 at The Cotton Boll in Vernon, Texas. Should be a great week! Here's a list of all my shows coming up for the next two weeks. Spread the word and we'll see ya at the next show!

Reverbnation

I'm enjoying a slow week this week. It works because I have a lot of "desk" work to do, plus the weather sucks. Working on booking March and April as well as finishing up my fund-raising proposal so I can get into the studio. I'm pretty well ready with all the songs I wanna record, and my producer says he's very excited about what I've presented song-wise. I still have a few songs to finish that I would like to make it on the album. We'll see.

New shows have been booked for Feb. & March. Checkout my reverbnation page for updated calander and music. Also, you can join the mailing list for future updates!

In the next few months Brandon will go into the studio to record his first solo album. With several new songs, Brandon is more than ready to get his music into your hands. Until then, keep up to date on all the tour dates being booked throughout the midwest region, and keep loooking for the new website at www.brandonjacksonmusic.com. We hope to see you at a show real soon.

New Songs

So I've been writing a lot lately. Very excited with the stuff I'm coming up with, and I've been getting into the creative process like never before. It's very fun and challenging. I've noticed an improvement with each new song, and feel I'm growing more and more as a songwriter.
My plan is to get into the studio around the beginning of this coming year. I just hope that once I get the final product to all the fans, they will enjoy the songs as much or more than I do right now. I've got quite a few tunes at the moment, but will keep the writing going until I feel I have the best collection of songs for the album. I can't wait.

Shows this week

So I'll be playing this Monday, Oct. 26 at Dirty's in Stillwater with my friend Sam Caire, and Wednesday, Oct. 28 at Wormy Dog in OKC with Jason Eady. Tickets for the Wormy Dog can be purchased here. Hope to see ya at a show this week!

OSU Homecoming Weekend

So, now that I've set out on my own from No Justice, I've taken some time off to recharge and prepare for my newest adventure, working on a solo album. It comes at a great time, because it's football season! Love watching some OSU football!

I got to experience OSU Homecoming this past weekend. It had been way too long. One of the best Homecomings in the Country in my opinion. Friday, Beki and I met some friends at Dirty's to "get ready" for Walk Around. For those of you who are not aware of what Walk Around is, I'll give ya a short explanation. All the Frats and Sororities team up to build "House Decks" (floats that are built on the lawns of the fraternities), and you walk around all the houses and enjoy the festivities. It always amazes me how detailed they can get with colored paper stuck in chicken wire.

After that, Beki and I headed to Gallagher-Iba for the Hoops and Homecoming ceremony. A double shot of Homecoming and Men's and Women's Basketball scrimmage. One of the best and most entertaining segments of the entire thing was the introduction of the Men's Basketball team and then watching them dance with the Pom's. Even Coach Ford got in on the action. They certainly play basketball better than they dance. Thankfully! Beki and the Poms had been working all week with them to get it looking good. Very fun. I'm looking forward to Basketball season, both team's look very much improved. Plus one of the Women's players can DUNK! That night we met back up at Dirty's with friends and ran into former Cowboy, Charlie Johnson, who now plays for the Indianapolis Colts. Was a great night and perfect ending to a fun day.

Saturday, was game-day, and my buddy Jordan Doolen, who was in the band 12 Pearls with me, came into town to go to the OSU-Missouri game with me. With such a late kick off set at 8:15, we had plenty of time to find people and tailgate. I've never really tailgated too much before.....it's fun, but it is so hard to find people in all that mess. There are people everywhere! We found a few friends and were able to catch up and have a few drinks, and then we headed on in to watch OSU beat Missouri. Great game and over all a fun game. OSU looks better and better every week. Go Pokes! That night Kit Nowlin also a member of 12 Pearls met us out at Dirty's and then we all hung out at the house until the early hours of Sunday morning.

What a fun Homecoming weekend. I was hurting almost the entire next week, but it was totally worth it.

Until next time....

Brandon
