Author of the book called Live Music Method and the genius behind the All Roads Lead to the Stage DVD series, Tom Jackson is a master at transforming an artist’s live show into a magical experience for the audience! As a Live Music Producer, Tom takes what the artist is trying to communicate and helps put it in a language the audience understands. From stretching the song out more, introducing a different expansion of an instrumental solo, Tom takes your studio recorded hit and makes it tangible to love it being performed live! Tom has worked with artists like Taylor Swift, Jars of Clay, The Band Perry, Gloriana, and many more, on their live show. In fact, 1000s of artists, both major and indie, in nearly every genre — rock, pop, country, folk, jazz, blues, Gospel, world, and more — have learned from Tom. The artists he has worked with have had hundreds of #1 songs, sold millions of records, and played to thousands live. But his teaching will help anyone who performs onstage! Listen in to see what you can learn from your songs live. For more on what Tom Jackson is up to, check out his new live program webinars: https://onstagesuccess.com/2020/04/pirates-dont-anything/
