Larysa A. Jackson

Her powerful voice and musical journey were rooted in her father’s church choir in Kansas City. She moved to Music City, where she continued sharing her voice at church and in the Nashville music scene. From Country to soul, she became the only Black woman with an artist residency in Lower Broadway at Justin Timberlake’s Twelve Thirty Club. 

Jackson performed with many artists and racked up accolades including multiple 
Nashville Independent Spirit Award nominations. She also served as musical director for Nashville’s Shakespeare Festival.  

Among her many achievements, Jackson was a devoted mother of four children and a beacon of light in constant determination to pursue her dreams.
