SoundClick artist: LUCKY JACKSON - page with MP3 music downloads

I believe that indie artists are the most creative and unique people there are. They take the most risks and there successes are the most fondly remembered.

Why this name?

It came from the 1964 Elvis Presley film 'Viva Las Vegas'

Do you play live?

I'm not a big fan of performing live, so I don't do it much at the moment. I don'ty even have a regular band I play with, but it is in the pipeline at some point. No matter how much you like writing and recording, performing live has to happen at some time.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

It's the wave of the future!!!!

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

Not really, I have more power and control doing what I'm doing.

Band History:

I managed a band in the 80's called 'The Dregz'. Then decided to work on my own carreer in the 90's by puting together my own label and studio after spending good money on an album that was a complete disaster. It's a long story, but I'm much better off this way. The internet is the best friend of the 21st century for all artists.

Your influences?

Elvis, The Beatles, The Monkees, John Lennon,
all music from the 50's and 60's, Mozart.

Favorite spot?

I've lived in Adelaide all my life and wouldn't be caught living anywhere else!

Equipment used:

I love my Pink Paisley Fender Telecaster and record at the moment using Cakewalk Sonar 4 (I need to upgrade).

Anything else...?

Good muso's and attractive women!!!!

I'm a fan!
