Wolf Jackson
Band Leader
Tampa, FL
Wolf Jackson is a professional musician and songwriter based in Tampa, Florida, with a long track record of working alongside a wide range of artists across genres. His career began in the ‘70s and ‘80s as part of the semi-successful touring band Flight Crew, known for their energetic live shows and loyal regional following. After going solo, Wolf honed his craft as a storyteller and multi-instrumentalist, building a reputation for timeless songwriting and musical versatility that continues to resonate with fans old and new.
More than just an excellent guitar player, Wolf knows how to lay down a proper bass line, keep a steady groove behind the drum kit, and add subtle emotion through his soft-touch piano playing. His guitar work is shaped by early influences like Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, and Jimmy Page, later expanding to include the soulful phrasing of Stevie Ray Vaughan and the finesse of Eric Johnson. But the spark that lit the fire was Machine Head by Deep Purple—Ritchie Blackmore’s riffs turned a young Wolf into a lifelong student of sound.
Moving forward, Wolf is energized by new musical endeavors and looks forward to collaborating with both longtime peers and fresh talent to keep creating tasteful, resonant music for years to come.
