Despite these challenges, Jackson remains committed to his craft.

He has announced his farewell tour, “Last Call: One More for the Road,”

which will span through 2024 and 2025, allowing fans to enjoy his music one last time.

Jackson, a revered figure in country music for over four decades, is celebrated for his distinctive blend of traditional country and honky tonk.

At 64 years old, he has sold over 80 million records, is a member of the Grand Ole Opry, and was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2017.

His personal life has been marked by profound loss and struggle. Last year, Jackson revealed his diagnosis of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a revelation that followed the tragic death of his son-in-law, Ben Selecman, in a 2018 boating accident. Ben, who was married to Jackson’s daughter Mattie, suffered fatal head injuries while assisting a woman onto a boat. Ben’s passing was a significant blow to the family; he was remembered for his humor and promise.

The family’s grief has been reflected in Jackson’s recent albums, Angels & Alcohol (2015) and Where Have You Gone (2021), which explore themes of loss and healing. Jackson and his daughter Mattie co-wrote the song “Racing the Dark,” capturing their shared pain and resilience. Fans can support Mattie by purchasing her upcoming book, Lemons on Friday: Trusting God Through My Greatest Heartbreak, which delves into her journey through grief and faith. The book also discusses NaSHEville, the business she co-founded to empower women in the music industry.

Despite his health struggles, Jackson’s dedication to performing remains unwavering. His upcoming farewell tour will be a testament to his enduring spirit and passion for music. The Jackson family’s strength and resilience in the face of adversity are truly inspiring, and their journey continues to touch the hearts of many.
