| IOWA BLUES HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES | ||||
|
Gary
Jackson, of Des Moines, and younger brother of IBHOF member Gene
Jackson, got some valuable and important professional experience at the
age of 15 when he traveled to Florida to play keyboards with Soul/Blues
legend, Tyrone Davis.
Jackson, also a phenomenal singer, has since performed with Ella
Ruth Piggee, Dartanyan Brown, Tommy Gordon (of Chase fame), Del "Saxman"
Jones (touring the globe with Split Decision, and recently reuniting
with Del), and Sam Salomone, who he currently performs with on a
periodic basis.
Gary has the dynamic vocal range to easily interpret Blues, Jazz
and Soul, with a stage presence to match.
Jackson is certainly held in high regard as one of Iowa's premier
singers and showmen. - Don
