With his debut LP 'Low Key' released Friday, September 11 (via MGM), Jackmann served up an entrée in the form of his new single '3-6-27'.
"In the American calendar, March 6, 1927, marked the day Bertrand Russell delivered his famous address 'Why I Am Not A Christian' at the Battersea Town Hall. It was a pivotal moment in Western thought on expressing one's belief (or lack thereof), and whether God indeed existed. Christianity was never the same since.
This song is written from the perspective of God to his Church (Russell in particular) how a deity might feel about being left behind by those who once considered Him everything. I think it translates well to every narcissist who believes themselves the centre of someone else's Universe," Kris says.
A slightly dark, pop-tinged tune that again showcases Kris' rich baritone vocal that sets the foundation of Jackmann's signature sound, '3-6-27' follows on from 'All Or Nothing' 'Not A Bad Person' and 'The Wolf and The Hare'.
Recorded over a weekend at Abbey Road Studios with producer Sam Okell (Grammy and Emmy winner for his work with PJ Harvey, Graham Coxon and The Beatles).
Low Key is the debut release from Jackmann, available now.
