.OfficialJackson talks about returning with his first album in six years WhereHaveYouGone

. His mother, Ruth Musick Jackson, died in 2017, and a year later, his son-in-law had a fatal boating accident. “We were going to finish the album later that year and that’s when Mattie’s husband died, and it kind of just set it back for a long time,” he says.

“I don’t like to talk about everybody else’s music. It’s not that it’s bad music. Everybody likes what they like, and I like real country music,” he says, citing his appreciation for fiddle, steel guitar and substantive lyrics. “I feel like those ingredients are slowly disappearing. They’ve always come and gone, but there’s usually somebody who is making what I call real country music. It seems like it’s getting less and less. … I’m just saying for me that it makes me sad to see it go away.

In fact, he sees a silver lining to not concerning himself with chart positions. “It’s almost a relief not to have to worry about it,” he says. “On this album, I just did what I wanted to do and what I thought my fans would like and it really makes it easy.”
