If you’re a fan of trippy lo-fi folk rock much like that of, say, Kurt Vile or Kevin Morby, and you’re NOT already listening to Portland’s Jackson Boone, you’re majorly missing out on some serious misty magic. A natural born songwriter, Jackson has been making music and playing festivals around the country since 2014. Today, he’s releasing a new full length and gearing up to hit the road in support of it.
Organic Light Factory was inspired by the continual changes Jackson and his band the Ocean Ghosts experience as a result of their constant songwriting and touring. The songs are like a diary of their journey so far, showing personal transformation as well. "Don’t" and "Mystic Winds (from the East)" are all we’ve heard on it so far, so you’ll have to catch the rest of the tracks at the album release show/tour kickoff.
Head over to Mississippi Studios tonight at 9pm to hear the album performed live and in full, say goodbye the band and catch some sets from Cat Hoch, Sinless and Wave Action as well.
