‘An extraordinary musician and heartfelt performer’ – Reb Fountain
Krissy lives, breathes and sings music.
She has been studying violin since the age of two and teaching since she was twelve, but her heart lies in performance and it’s on stage that we hear Krissy’s reverent commitment to music
come to life.
At The Jam Factory, Krissy will be joined by Adam Ogle (folk multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter), Anna Percy (cellist extroadinaire) and husband Peter Jackson (wizard on the keys).
Immersed in New Zealand’s folk scene and coveted for her musical ear and dedication to her art, Krissy dances with melody and tone; always honouring the music, in all ways making it her own. Touring from Whangarei to Dunedin and everywhere in between, Krissy plays a wide range of music – from blue-grass to folk-punk, gypsy-rock to classical and Indian-folk.
She has performed with the likes of Reb Fountain, The Frank Burkitt Band, Sargum Fusion, Albi and the Wolves, Hot Diggity, WAI.TAI and most recently Aotearoa’s most hard working band, The Eastern.
A true troubadour and talent, Krissy Jackson’s music is not to be missed!
