A little about Carl Jackson:

One of Jackson’s finest production successes is entitled "Livin', Lovin', Losin' - Songs Of The Louvin Brothers" and was the 2003 Grammy winner for Country Album of the Year.  "How's The World Treating You", an incredible duet from the album, featuring James Taylor and Alison Krauss, also won the Grammy for vocal collaboration.

In 2011 Jackson produced "Mark Twain:  Words & Music", celebrating the life of America's greatest writer, Samuel Clemens. 

Carl's latest project, Grace Notes, is an inspired guitar instrumental portrait of dearly loved hymns.  It was recorded using a collection of rare acoustic guitars, some dating back to the mid 1800s, and includes Jackson's own voice telling the "story" behind each instrument.
