With a calming and candid nature, Oklahoma native Nikki Jackson, has a flair for stirring up emotions in her listeners. Earnest and unfiltered, her music creates an experience for the audience akin to opening up a gripping novel, the kind that leaves you eager to turn the page while simultaneously compelling you to go back and re-read the paragraph you just finished, analyzing each and every word along the way.
Nikki's most recent single, Damaged, dives deep into the feelings of helplessness and shame that often accompany mental illness and offer the listener a raw, first-person narrative of someone slowly reaching their breaking point. The song is from her upcoming EP, Leave Me the Lesson, a collection of 4 songs that tell a story of devastation, consciousness, and finding a path forward under even the most hopeless circumstances.
