Joe Jackson at UPAC, Kingston

Presented by Kirschner Concerts

English musician and singer-songwriter Joe Jackson is a unique and critically acclaimed recording artist, whose five Grammy nominations span 1979 to 2001. He is probably best-known for the 1979 hit song \"Is She Really Going Out with Him?\", which still gets extensive FM radio airplay; for his 1982 hit, \"Steppin\' Out\"; and for his 1984 hit, \"You Can\'t Get What You Want (Till You Know What You Want)\". Along with Elvis Costello and Graham Parker, Jackson was a part of the trio of British-based artists that challenged the punk scene and brought a New Wave sound to the United States in the late 1970s. He was popular for his power-pop and New Wave sound early on before moving to more eclectic, though less commercially successful, pop/jazz/classical musical pieces.
