Jaxon is a true born and bread Austin artist with a sound that reflects and brings together his city and I believe this is why he has been so successful at creating a local fan base.
With amazing talent across the board Jaxon plays all the instruments, sings and raps and writes every word on all his songs. With a love for music and a genuine desire to touch and inspire people in a positive way – I would say the sky is the limit for Jaxon. I am excited to see a new trail blazed by a fresh take and unique sound in a legendary music city.
What does your music say about you?
Everything, I hope. I’m trying to convey every side of me and the human experience in general. I want my music to be like a get- to know- you guide for me; I’m trying to be as vulnerable as possible.
What sets your music apart? What is unique, or at least uncommon?
My band is amazing, I love all those guys and we are a unique mix but aside from that my main focus in music is to be genre-bending, so the hope is that each song is like nothing you’ve ever heard before.
What draws you to your preferred genre?
Well, I love rap and hip-hop music, always have and I love old soul and fun music so for this album I was trying to mix the two in a new modern way. Also, I can’t sing for shit, so I just sound better when I’m rapping but I’m working on that.
Who would you most like to collaborate with?
Mac Miller for sure
