Walkabout Clearwater Coffeehouse Presents: Jackson Pines
Saturday, January 18, 2025
Jackson Pines
Jackson Pines is an indie folk band hailing from Jackson, New Jersey. Best friends Joe Makoviecki (guitar, vocals, harmonica) and James Black (upright bass) make up the core of the group. Help rounding out their sound is Cranston Dean (drums, mandolin, vocals), Max Carmichael (banjo, flute, octave mandolin, guitar), and James Herdman (fiddle, ukulele).
Joe Makoviecki and James Black grew up playing in local bands in their hometown, writing music together, traveling around the country and traveling around the U.K. They became known for playing original and traditional folk music.
Critics have called them “a mash-up of James Taylor and Tom Petty — with serious focus on acoustic guitar”. Jackson Pines have a collection of music that “presents a unique lyrical take on life, bringing a rustic flair to the world of indie-folk/acoustic music”. They have also been described as “rootsy when they jam. They are poetic, but they rock.”
Known for playing traditional folk music along with their fingerpicking guitar and stand-up bass rhythms, Jackson Pines weaves their songs with threads of stories from people they know, places they’ve been, and pains and joys they’ve experienced.
They performed at the Walkabout Clearwater Coffeehouse at our Pete Seeger Night last May. We received so many requests from the audience that we are so happy to have them back again.
