30 | Hilo | Dana | f | In 1992, shortly after the 1992 Los Angeles riots, Jackson moved from Richmond to Los Angeles. In 1995, he collaborated with musician Bill Elm, who introduced Jackson to the band Friends of Dean Martinez. Jackson eventually acted as a fill-in for an absent guitar player before remaining with the band as a full member for some time. He also worked for McCabe's Guitar Shop for several years before becoming a session musician, working on the soundtracks of films like The Devil Wears Prada and Ocean's Twelve. His musical style has been described as a "smooth blend of Krautrock, funk, ambient and brick-smashing instrumental rap". Around 2009, Jackson took over Melrose Avenue-based Vox Recording Studios (also known as Electro-Vox), which was established in 1931 and is said to be the oldest privately held recording studio in the United States. The same year, video game company Rockstar Games signed him to co-compose music for the upcoming game Red Dead Redemption, together with Elm. He would later also compose incidental music for Rockstar's L.A. Noire. In 2018, Jackson continued working with Rockstar as the composer for the prequel to Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2. | Jackson is a baptised Mormon. He is married to Sharon Jackson, a talent agent and partner for William Morris Endeavor. The couple formerly occupied a home in the Nichols Canyon neighborhood of Los Angeles; they bought the property for US$925,000 in 2003 and sold it in June 2017 for $3.29 million. Jackson has two daughters, Georgina Washington Jackson and Theodora Roosevelt Jackson. | in 1992, shortly after the 1992 los angeles riots, dana moved from richmond to los angeles. in 1995, sh ecollaborated with musician bill elm, who introduced dana to the band friends of dean martinez. dana eventually acted as a fill-in for an absent guitar player before remaining with the band as a full member for some time. sh ealso worked for mccabe's guitar shop for several years before becoming a session musician, working on the soundtracks of films like the devil wears prada and ocean's twelve. her musical style has been described as a "smooth blend of krautrock, funk, ambient and brick-smashing instrumental rap". around 2009, dana took over melrose avenue-based vox recording studios (also known as electro-vox), which was established in 1931 and is said to be the oldest privately held recording studio in the united states. the same year, video game company rockstar games signed her to co-compose music for the upcoming game red dead redemption, together with elm. sh ewould later also compose incidental music for rockstar's l.a. noire. in 2018, dana continued working with rockstar as the composer for the prequel to red dead redemption, red dead redemption 2.dana is a baptised mormon. sh eis married to sharon dana, a talent agent and partner for william morris endeavor. the couple formerly occupied a home in the nichols canyon neighborhood of los angeles; they bought the property for us$925,000 in 2003 and sold it in june 2017 for $3.29 million. dana has two daughters, georgina washington dana and theodora roosevelt dana. | Woody | Jackson | musicians |
