Jackson Jackson are Harry James Angus, vocalist and trumpeter of Cat Empire fame and producer and composer Jan Skubiszewski. They met and recorded this odd, out of this world song about a race of subterrenean people hell bent on destroying the world – or something to that effect – according to the rather ambiguous press release. I’m not really sure how to classify this, it’s not really hip hop or beats. It sounds a lot like what my ex-housemates used to come up with their MPCs and home recording gear. The vocals does have a very distinct Australian flavour to it, and I’m curious to hear more material from their album. Jackson Jackson play their very first gig on January 20th at the Evelyn Hotel in Melbourne, check it out.
