Live & Direct: Mars Jackson

Pittsburgh-based indie hip-hop artist Mars Jackson joins Mid-day Mix host Kyle Smith for a Live & Direct Session at Pittsburgh Community Broadcast Center on August 25.

“’Old to Me, New To You’was definitely old songs that didn’t get to see the light of day. When you’re quarantined and you have time to go to your computer and look at some of the previous tracks that you’ve done that didn’t come out,” Jackson explains the recent release of two tracks from 2015 on Bandcamp, and how much growth he feels it shows.

Watch as Mars performs and chats with Kyle.

Music Director Kyle Smith found his way to Pittsburgh via Burlington, Vermont in 1998. Smith’s career in radio has spanned over 30 years and numerous genres, including news and sports. He found his home in the AAA format at Alternative Rev105 in Minneapolis.
