ABOUT

Jackson Cavalier is an Americana one man band based out of the finger lakes region of New York state.

Jackson Cavalier delivers a dynamic Americana experience as a one-man band, blending elements of folk, blues, country, and bluegrass with raw energy and heartfelt storytelling. Utilizing a electrified parlor guitar, foot drums with a rhythmic drive, and layered harmonica solos, his lyrics and performances evoke the spirit of dusty back-roads and smoky bars, exploring themes of heartbreak, wanderlust, and redemption with an authentic, modern edge.

He has been a full time recording and performing musician since 2013. Notably, he has opened up for Steve Earle, Willie Watson of Old Crow Medicine Show, The Felice Brothers, Billy Bob Thorton and The Boxmasters, Eilen Jewell, Blackberry Smoke, and Holly Golightly and The Brokeoffs.

In the Spring of 2023 Jackson entered the Gems On VHS "Gems In The Rough" contest and out of over 1000 submissions and 3 rounds of voting placed 2nd overall.

Beyond this, he has been voted "Best Busker" 3 times locally in his hometown of Rochester, NY.

Jackson has released multiple full length records and all of his music can be found on major streaming platforms. On average Jackson performs between 100 and 200 times a year at venues of all variations.
