about
JXN (pronounced Jackson) has released his debut single ‘Solitude’. Born Jackson Brazier, he’s made a name for himself amassing more than a million followers across YouTube and Instagram but now the 25 year old is embarking on his most important venture yet, as one of Australia’s most promising new artists. ‘Solitude’ is an impossibly accomplished introduction that defines who JXN is an artist. It’s a slick, late night jam blending modern RnB influences with pop sensibilities inspired in part by DIY Soundcloud artists who have crossed over into the mainstream. ‘Solitude’ was created in Sweden with local writer and producer Johan Gustafson who has worked with Icona Pop and Korean megastars Girls Generation. Together, they’ve written something that’s raw and honest with JXN digging up past relationships and detailing that emotional rollercoaster of staying with someone even though you know it’s not quite right. Brazier met Gustafson while he was on a writing trip in Australia. The producer invited him back to Sweden to co-write with him and a number of trips later, his ventures have proved fruitful. ‘Solitude’ is a triumphant moment for Brazier as it comes after years of chipping away at a music career both online and in his studio. It’s a breakup song that taps into a universal emotion which is part of the reason why he decided it was the perfect song to kick-off his career as JXN.
