Eldmer Gill is this months artist Eldmer is a Welsh boyo, a religious deity and a Bude based illustrator, typographer and tattoo chieftain. If you want it - he will draw it . If you need it - he will give it . If you don’t want it - he will fix it . He is a master of old drawing techniques and vintage lettering which can be seen in both his paper and skin pieces. Proficient in linework or dotwork, black, black and grey and colour - Mr. Gill has learnt his trade from experience and passion. Eldmer will always have a place in Mr. Jackson’s heart - on a creative (but more importantly) on a personal level.

Eldmer created this piece especially for this song and we can’t thank him enough for such a fitting creation.

Please check out, support, love and offer kudos to Eld here, here and hither :

‘Do the Feynman’ …. is song number 35 in my ongoing Prints Jackson Project.

It’s heavy on guitars and big on drums .. to me it’s a music lilt lifted from the early noughties or possibly even Scott Pilgrim Vs The World !

It’s a nod to the beautifully beautiful (if not somewhat confused) Richard Feynman. His life and lectures were fascinating, diverse and captivating _ as were the workings of his mind and his vocal outpourings driven by his perception of the world .

He was pretty fucking rad . 

I’d love you all to have not just a listen … but to own it as its completely FREE

Happy 2017 ye who care and ye who do not .

‘Reindeer Reindeer’ …. is song number 34 in my ongoing Prints Jackson Project.

and it's 8 days late .... apologies

It’s a Christmas song of course .... a big fat wintery song of cuddles and Christmas spirit AND reindeers trotting on all the shit that was 2016 - served up in the back of a snowy sleigh, surrounded by parcels, popping-candy mince pies and edible tinsel in the bleak mid winter.

This is my 3rd Christmas song - I'm starting to feel like Hugh Grant's dad in 'about a boy' - (except I'm not making a bean from Christmas royalties and certainly not living in a East London Bachelor pad) I'm broke and living in a South Wales terraced house .... but trust me .... I'm a freaking pro at writing this shit now ....

I’d love you all to have not just a listen … but to own it as its completely FREE

AND PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TELL PEOPLE ABOUT THE PROJECT …. that really is all I have ever wanted for the last 3 Christmas's .. I am absolutely serious .

Nadolig Llawen . Feliz Navidad . Joyeux Noel . Merry Crimbo .

Selina Turfus is this months artist Currently working in London as a UX/UI Designer, 'Reindeer Girl' (the artwork for this months festive release) was done whilst studying fashion illustration at the University of Plymouth. She sights Stina Persson, David Downton and Birdy & Me as purposeful influences and enjoys working with pencil, ink and watercolours. In recent years whilst in the big smoke she has focused on making and constructing geometric shapes and patterns from her sketchbook to the computer (think Malika Favre with a twist and you wont be far off ;-) 

We are absolutely delighted that Selina wanted to be part of the project and 'Reindeer Girl' could not be a more ideal vision for this months song.

‘The Tallest Woman on Earth’ …. is song number 33 in my ongoing Prints Jackson Project.

It’s a folking folk song (open wide for it Falco ;-) but with a Beck mutations type twist that freshens it up in an Elliot Smith type Jeff Mangum kinda way.

Contrary to popular belief : NO UKELELES WERE INJURED DURING IT’S CONSTRUCTION !

I’d love you all to have not just a listen … but to own it as its completely FREE
