Bio: Jackson Emmer is an award-winning songwriter and folksinger from Santa Cruz, California. His 5th solo record, "Battle Hymn of the Early Riser" is out in June of 2025. The album explores themes of family, parenthood, broken dreams, and steady bonds. Emmer’s writing is often compared to the late greats of the 70's Texas troubadour scene – think witty and gritty, cheerful and lonesome, a poet bleeding while you tap your toes. Emmer has performed at the Bluebird Cafe, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, and Club Passim. He has taught for Acoustic Guitar Magazine, Swallow Hill Music, and many other music camps. Bluegrass legend Tim O'Brien said this about Emmer's latest: "I chuckled, I sang along, and a few tears came. It's personal, universal, fresh, and hopeful. And there's steel guitar. Were you looking for more?"
