Seattle's Leonard Jackson, Jr. cites as main artistic influences George Benson, Norman Brown, Peter White, Ken Navarro, Marc Antoine, and Michael Powers.

Asked to describe the overall meaning of “Stringdom Com,” Leonard Jackson, Jr. writes, “My album was recorded in mid 2019 before COVID, but I believe it carries inspiration useful for this uncertain season of life in our world. The aim of the album was to use minimal instrumentation and digital fx in composing a mellow range of smooth, soothing, alluring, and easily accessible nylon string music.”
Leonard Jackson, Jr. is a musical autodidact, but has also studied at the Al Turay Jazz School and the Berklee School of Music.
