Jackson Karleb

Indie folk, singer-songwriter material and pop combine in this self-accompanied performer's sound, one musician handling both the playing and the singing rather than working with a backing band. Jackson Karleb has built a following around Melbourne on the strength of his lyrics and melodies, aiming for songs that hold attention even with listeners who don't usually gravitate to live music. The pop influence keeps the melodies accessible while the folk and singer-songwriter side carries the lyrical weight.
