His current single “Heavens To Betsy” serves as the center point of the project and has garnered more than 25 million streams.

What folks are saying about On The Back Of My Dreams:

“…a near-perfect follow-up to his debut album Greenbroke.” – AMERICAN SONGWRITER

“Every single song off On The Back Of My Dreams is exactly what music is all about…This record deserves its flowers!” 
– COUNTRY SWAG

“For those who haven’t yet joined the Jackson Dean train, now is the perfect time to grab your ticket and experience the magic for yourself… On The Back Of My Dreams is set to be a staple in country music collections for years to come….This album is not just a collection of songs; it’s a journey through the heart and soul of one of country music’s most compelling voices.”  
– ALL COUNTRY NEWS

“Few vocalists could be mistaken for Chris Stapleton. However, on tracks like “Sweet Appalachia” and “Duct Tape Heart,” Dean gives the Kentucky troubadour a run for his money.” – AMERICAN SONGWRITER

“He is like a cowboy version of Cobain… He borders on Springsteen, Stapleton, Waylon. It is not a hearts and flowers album it is more flesh and bone.” – COWGIRLUP

“The album, not unlike Dean himself of late, is built for durability. Radio singles, extensive streaming and being played as hard and loud as humanly possible in the live realm are the demands and expectations of the release’s success…. reminiscent of the space between bands like Pearl Jam and Chris Cornell’s work fronting Audioslave and Soundgarden” – THE TENNESSEAN 

“it’s no stretch to say that Jackson Dean is one of the hottest young voices in the genre today.” 
– COUNTRY CHORD

“Distinct is exactly how each On The Back Of My Dreams tune can be described.”– MUSIC ROW

– COUNTRY CENTRAL

“It’s clear that this album is exactly what country music needs right now… In a landscape often dominated by transient fads, Jackson Dean’s On The Back Of My Dreams stands out as a triumph of artistry and sincerity. Dean’s refusal to chase fleeting trends and his dedication to crafting meaningful music is evident throughout the album. Each track is a testament to his mastery of the craft and his ability to connect with listeners on a profound level.” – ALL COUNTRY NEWS

 “Dean is poised for commercial success, yet the album remains a cohesive, meaningful body of work that stands as an album in the truest sense of the word—46 minutes of thoughtfully crafted music that says something real, meaningful and important.”
 – ENTERTAINMENT FOCUS

“Jackson Dean is again emphasizing in his sophomore album that he is an excellent songwriter. It is simply fun – and fascinating – listening to his music.” – FLYCTORY

“Dean has crafted an album that not only meets the high expectations set by its predecessor but also elevates his craft to new, exhilarating heights.” – ALL COUNTRY NEWS
