Biography Jade Jackson was born on February 10, 1992.

In 2005, when she was 13 years old, Jackson and her family moved from Los Osos, California to Santa Margarita, California, where her parents opened a restaurant with her brother as the head chef. She lived in a house without air-conditioning and was forbidden by her parents, whom Jackson has called "overprotective", from using the Internet or watching television.

When she was 13 years old, she attended her first concert by herself, a performance by Social Distortion in San Luis Obispo; Christine Ness, the wife of lead singer Mike Ness, had been friends with Jackson's mother since high school. The concert inspired her to begin songwriting and, by the time she finished high school, she had written 370 songs. She then also began performing at wineries up U.S. Route 101 in Paso Robles, California. The physical recovery was 18 months but the mental recovery took much longer and required therapy.

Christine Ness heard Jackson perform a rough set as a demo in friend’s basement and immediately forwarded a recording to her husband, Mike Ness. After hearing her performances, Mike Ness produced her first album, Gilded in 2017, which was released on Anti-. That year, she was the opening act for Social Distortion concerts.

In February 2017, Jackson was featured on the list "10 New Country Artists You Need to Know" by Rolling Stone.

In 2018, she performed at Stagecoach Festival.

On June 28, 2019, Jackson released her second full-length album titled Wilderness, also produced by Ness.

In February and March 2020, she performed as the opening act for performances by Lucero.

In 2021, after connecting via Instagram after they both performed on the same day at AmericanaFest in Nashville, Jackson collaborated with Aubrie Sellers and released an album titled Breaking Point.

In July and August 2022, she was the opening act for performances by Collective Soul and Switchfoot.

Personal life As of July 2019, Jackson had a boyfriend. Jackson's band on Gilded includes friends she knew from church and high school.
