Meshach Jackson

This Bayou-reared preacher’s son is a longtime favorite in Livermore’s music scene: soulful songwriting with equal parts gospel and grunge. 21+ Bar opens at 5 pm. No opener. Meshach Jackson & the Make Believe play at 7 pm. Bayou roots meet Austin grit in Meshach & the Make Believe. This ain't just music, it's a soul-stirring journey led by Meshach Jackson, a storyteller with grit in his voice and fire in his heart. From gospel hymns to rock & roll, his sound spans generations, capturing hearts with raw honesty and electrifying stage presence. Tom Waits meets Bjork, Radiohead blends with Ray Lamontagne, all filtered through a preacher's son turned nomadic troubadour. He's shared stages with Switchfoot, Damien Rice, and Earth Wind & Fire, yet his sound is uniquely his. Meshach has crisscrossed the country, soaking in the soul of America, its grit and its groove. Now, he calls Austin home, but his music roams free. See him backed by his full band, live at Almost Famous Wine Lounge, an award-winning, new tasting room and venue located on Vasco Road in the heart of Livermore's wine, spirits and brewery district.
