Dawn Jackson, Kimberley MacGregor and Bob Blair @Charslanding
Fri, Oct 18th, 7:30pm (doors 7), Dawn Jackson, Kimberley MacGregor and Bob Blair
Dawn Jackson grew up plucking strings on the guitars hanging on the walls of her grandfathers Sho-Bud Guitar Company in Nashville, Tennessee. A branch off the pedal steel pioneering Jackson family, which has produced some of the most artistic and emotive instruments in the world, she followed the string pulls of her music-woven DNA strands to continue the tradition of creating music that expresses both heartache and hope. Her authentic storytelling style of songwriting paints lyrical images, braided with melodic and atypical chord progressions, all complemented by lush, full and moody vocals, topped with a hint of inescapable twang.

A reformed bank manager, Kimberley realized she was doing a successful job of living someone elses lifeand a poor job living her own. In 2013, she launched her original songs into the world and took centre stage. She has since released two full-length albums and was awarded Female Artist of the Year at both the 2015 and 2016 Edmonton Music Awards. She lovingly crafts and passionately performs songs that will move your heart, change your mind and stomp your feet. Weaving seamlessly between blues, folk and rock, her common threads are strength, vulnerability and badassery, always sizzling with soul.
