Dave Jackson

Reclusive alto saxophone iconoclast Dave Jackson has been active on the UK improv scene for nearly 30 years. Best known for his excoriating sax explorations with the legendary Solar Fire Trio. Dave has collaborated with many stray improvisers who've crossed his path including Phil Marks, Wayne Rex, Richard Hemmings, Olie Brice, Dave Birchall, Dirk Serries and Steve Belger. His music combines atonal abstraction with a primitive passion tuned into an otherworldly spirit channel outside the borders of conventional wisdom.
