January 9, 2024The Darrin Jackson Encounter will always be my 1st choice!😊
The Darrin Jackson Encounter will always be a 5 star for me! Darrin is always friendly and willing to perform at any event that CCBPS put on. Beaufort County residents and agencies love him and the rest of the band. If you haven’t booked him yet, you have waited too long! Thanks Darrin for your yes and friendly personality whenever we are in need of you.

January 9, 2024In-home Anniversary Serenade
For my anniversary, my husband really pulled out the romance card! He hired a chef to come into our home to prepare a special meal for us and as I walked down my stairs, it was to the beautiful melodies of Darrin Jackson. He’d set a stage in my living room and I couldn’t have been happier. As my husband and I laughed and ate our dinner, he played some of our favorite songs. This was hands down my most memorable anniversary. I would recommend him to anyone!

January 7, 2024Great for weddings, events, bars, concerts, festivals
The Darrin Jackson Encounter always puts on a great show! Fantastic music. Smart song choices that guarantee the crowd to have a good time. Darrin Jackson knows how to entertain, can play pretty much anything on the guitar. He sometimes plays solo, sometimes calls on other pro musicians to join him- on vocals, drums, keyboard, etc. He puts together the perfect set list for any occasion/crowd- from a night of live music or outdoor concerts and festivals, to church events and weddings and private celebrations, to even school and university events, like fraternity or sorority formals. He can stick to the script with classics and fan favorites, playing the original version you love to hear, and he can do some great improv and ad libs on R&B and jazz and bluesy songs... I would definitely recommend him for any occasion!
