Reading Time: 2 min read

Pop standout Jxckson ‘warms us up’ during the emotional times of the holiday season with his thoughtful single, “Keep Me Warm.”

“Sorry to call you again / I know I left you like, 20,000 voice messages.” That is a lot of voice messages, Jxckson. Not judging, but… are you okay? Well, the talented pop artist adds, “I just feel so cold / Tonight I don’t want to be alone.” Ugh, that is totally relatable, particularly when you are unattached. Jxckson, hence needs someone to “Keep Me Warm” – at least in the context of the song, released December 1, 2023. Of “Keep Me Warm,” he asserts,

It’s a heartfelt exploration of reaching out after a period of self-isolation, embodying both sadness and hope. It uniquely captures the emotions of the holiday season in a fresh and contemporary way.

WORD. That’s deep, man! As always, the Austin, Texas musician brings his ‘A game,’ even in the frigid, wintertime.

“Keep Me Warm” is a playlist enhancer, period – more like, exclamation! It isn’t what’s expected in the holiday season, and that is part of the magic. Jxckson is backed by a gorgeous instrumental (shout out gifted UK artist/producer, Sevenths), with its blend of guitar, pads, synths (the power of the keys), and some strings, too! The backdrop is enigmatic, which suits the relatively slow but steady approach to this record. As great as the production is, including a change of pace that occurs after the two-minute-mark, the star of the show is Jxckson. His tone is marvelous. Also, it wouldn’t be a Jxckson song if he didn’t toy with us as he sings. Furthermore, the man never fails to hypnotize us, mesmerizing us with his playfulness. As he sings, his authenticity and indulgent approach makes us want to experience this same warmth he desires. Even when he’s not front and center in the mix, the moments he’s mixed into the background, or performs in more of an undertone, only adds to the enigma and compelling nature of the song. Are you in need of musical warmth, or a lift to the music rotation, particularly in the midst of the holidays or loneliness in general? Look no further than Jxckson and his latest bop, “Keep Me Warm”.
