Jackson Dean was gifted with an incredible voice that defies the fact that he is only 21 years old (he’ll turn 22 on October 6th). He sings with such depth and soul that it would be easy to believe talent like his runs in his family, but Jackson says, not quite.

“My sister sang in a choir a little bit, kind of all through school, and we sang a bit together. My oldest brother though, was a dirty hippie like myself and just played guitar. My uncle plays, but in terms of doing it like this, we have no idea. We don’t know where it came from. It’s just one of those things, it’s like, oh, this one seemed to have been graced with an ability to do this. But yeah, we have no idea where it came from. It’s weird.”

Jackson Dean and his voice are currently on tour with Lee Brice, and he’s celebrating the fact that his debut single, “Don’t Come Lookin’,” is currently sitting in the top ten on the charts.
