Singer-songwriter Sammy Jackson (BMus, HBA) is quickly becoming one of Canada’s top
vocalists, with a personal style that deftly blends jazz, pop, and R&B. With a resume that boasts
a JUNO Award for Vocal Jazz Album of the Year, collaborations with top artists such as Barbra Lica, Robi Botos, Rich Brown, and Larnell Lewis, and performances at some of Canada’s most prestigious venues, including the Glenn Gould Studio, Koerner Hall, the TD Toronto Jazz Festival, and Westben. Jackson
consistently captivates audiences with her singing, compositional accomplishments, and
collaborative creative spirit. Her latest EP – the JUNO-Award winning “With You” – is a
sophisticated, intelligent, heart felt portrait of a musician coming into her artistic prime, and
features some of the top young musicians in Canada.
