Who is Chris Jackson? No, he's not in any way related to the late Michael Jackson. Nevertheless, he is a Jackson who’s passionate about music and entertainment. After years on the grind Chris is becoming one of the heavy weights in the Canadian music scene because he has put the time in to master his craft and study the greats. On two separate occasions he has had the chance to meet and chat with legendary music producer and one of his influences, The GREAT Quincy JONES!

Chris has been doing this for a while, so he knows what he's doing and he is great when it comes to giving real advice to up and coming or inspiring artists’. Currently Chris works for CBC Radio and CBC Sound as a recording engineer and broadcast technician. He is also CEO of EasPark Productions, a recording, production, development and management company.
