Get the full scoop on his new record deal here!

Jonathan Jackson may be best known for his acting chops, including playing the character of "Lucky" on the Soap Opera "General Hospital" and most recently playing an aspiring artist “Avery Barkley” on ABC’s "Nashville," but now he will get a chance at being a real-life singer after signing a contract with Loud & Proud Records. Jackson and his band Enation (comprised of himself, brother Richard and bassist Daniel Sweatt) have been making music together for the past 11 years and are ready to head into the studio to create their debut album.

“Jonathan Jackson is a natural performer, poet and a truly genuine person behind it all,” says Tom Lipsky, President and Owner of Loud & Proud Records. “A gifted singer, songwriter and guitarist, Jonathan surrounds himself with very talented musicians, his brother Richard and longtime bandmate Daniel. Jonathan’s words will touch many and the musicianship of Jonathan Jackson + Enation will certainly inspire. They are a truly special group of artists and Loud & Proud Records is thrilled to be their label partner. We are anxious for the world to hear and connect with their new music."

“We’re thrilled to be signing with Loud & Proud," adds Jackson. "Tom Lipsky has an incredible vision and passion for quality, transparency and long term success for his artists. Bands like Coldplay, U2 and Pearl Jam are great examples of artists who are dedicated to their craft but who also see their music as a vehicle for emotional and social change. They are bands who have inspired us to go beneath the surface, to create songs that are not just for entertainment but for a deeper purpose. We believe Loud & Proud understands that vision and we are excited to partner with Tom and his talented team on our brand new album.”

Until fans can get their hands on Jackson's first full-length album, they can head over to iTunes to purchase a copy of "Who Killed Romeo," a song co-written by Jackson and his former "General Hospital" co-star Steve Burton (now on "The Young and the Restless"). The song was featured on a recent episode of "The Young and the Restless."
