More recently, backed by a growing group of top virtuoso musicians from South America , France and the US, his English project The Jackson Scott Band has kicked off with a sound blending Latino with American Trad Jazz.
He has released a full length studio album with Mano de Dios, followed recently by a Jackson Scott LP which he recorded completely analogue and pressed exclusively in vinyl.
In 2013 he was commissioned to write the sound track for Angus McQueen´s documentary “Druglord, the Legend of Shorty” a film about the elusive Mexican drug baron El Chapo. In the same year he began an ongoing project based in Cuba recording Spanish versions of Nat King Cole standards for which he will be returning to complete a live album.
Currently based between London and Seville he is now writing new material in Spanish for his next Jackson Scott album, and moving in and out of the UK playing a series of dates, residencies and festivals with his group of South American musicians based in London.
