Tessa Rose Jackson

About

Tessa Rose Jackson is a songwriter, composer and visual artist based in London and Amsterdam. For six years she released music under the moniker Someone, but as of 2024 she has returned to using her own name for all her creative output. As Jackson is a film composer as well as an indie artist, her music has a naturally visual quality to it – channelling stories in which the human, the intimate and the fantastical are intertwined.
Musically she salutes heroes such as Feist, Laura Marling, Nick Drake and Zero 7, toeing the fine line between dreams and reality, delicacy and force.

In autumn of 2024 the news was revealed of Jackson’s involvement as a score composer and soundtrack artist for the highly anticipated video game “Life Is Strange: Double Exposure”.
Produced by the prestigious London based music production house Feel For Music the official soundtrack boasts no less than 5 original songs by Jackson alongside tracks by Dodie, Matilda
Mann, Chloe Moriondo and many others. The soundtrack will also be released by Square Enix on a special edition vinyl, as well a score album available on DSP’s.

At the same time, Jackson has been teasing tracks from her upcoming EP “A Mirror Sometimes” (set to release January 17, 2025), a project in which she collaborated with a different artist on each track. The result is a wonderfully diverse EP that feels as cohesive as it is texturally rich. Collaborations include Noon Garden, Nana Adjoa and Caoilian Sherlock, to name a few. The first singles have already garnered generous support from the likes of Paul Gallagher, Radio FIP and Nova (France), RTÉ 2 (IRL), Amazing Radio and KCRW (US) among many others.
