Bio
Luther “Squeak” Jackson, a multi-talented Detroit native whose destiny
to entertain has been undeniable since he started singing at the tender age
of two. Growing up in a family of singers, Squeak was destined to inherit
the bold sounds of crooning with unique styles of soothing riffs and runs.
Singing wasn’t the only talent he would inherit. “Squeaks’” family
soon discovered that he could play any instrument handed to him. While
drums, keyboards, guitar or saxophone alone would delight the average
dreamer, “Squeak” mastered them and some. He demonstrated an intrinsic
talent to produce and by age 8 he had fashioned his own method of
multi-track recording, simply by using two tape recorders! By the age of
10, “Squeak” had assembled his first of many singing groups.
Today, ingenuity in modern recording technology makes “Squeak” capable
of being a one-man production team. This talent is demonstrated on his
forthcoming album “Ready” where he and he alone has done all of his own
engineering, mixing, vocals, writing, arrangements and tracks. And after
the music’s down, “Squeak” pours out a soulful 4 octave range,
reminiscent of Sam Cooke and David Ruffin, with the contemporary spice of
Joe. He describes himself as a “crooner” and his forthcoming
“Ready” and “First Things First” are tunes sure to convey and
arouse the most genuine, heartfelt passion. His vocal arrangements and
harmonies are comparable to that of Take6 as heard in his “My World
Radio” Interludes.
“Squeak” assembled a dynamic group by the name of “7Mile” (Crave
Records/Sony/Epic). The group toured with Mariah Carey, LL Cool J, Mary J
Blige and Brian McKnight. He has been actively writing, producing and
performing studio work for several artists including K-Ci
