Today, Oklahoma native singer-songwriter Thunder Jackson shares the new single and video “Spoonfed Desire” via VERO Music. The emotionally candid psychedelic slow jam follows the success of his recent release, “Steady Freddy,” with an evocative video that is moody and tightly-edited.
Today, Jackson also announces an August 1 industry showcase at Freehold Brooklyn. Doors open at 7pm. The venue is located at 43 South 3rd St. Brooklyn, NY. Send an email with your and your guests’ names to RSVP@industrynightsnyc.com to secure your spot.
“Spoonfed Desire” showcases Jackson at his most contemplative, delivering a performance filled with raw passion and confidence over a piano-led groove, punctuated by layers of psychedelic production, electronic flourishes, and a melodic bassline that amplify the power of Jackson’s lyrics. The track was produced by Thunder Jackson and Taylor Johnson and mixed by Grammy and ARIA award winner Eric J Dubowsky (Flume, Weezer, St. Vincent).
“’Spoonfed Desire’ is about self-reflection and realization, about the change of the inner self,” shares Thunder Jackson. “It's about the beauty you find when the lights aren’t there to guide you anymore, the beauty you find in embracing the stranger you now see.”

Jackson premiered both “Spoonfed Desire” and “Steady Freddy” during a triumphant performance at SXSW, where he brought the house down with a set of new songs and favorites from his multi-million streaming 2020 eponymous debut.
CLASH Magazine named the performance one of the best of the festival, stating: “The Oklahoma City songwriter emerged the showmanship of Sly Stone with the songcraft of Elton John during a bravura set, his stratospheric levels of self-belief treating the bar at Lefty’s as it was a colossal arena. Impressive on record, Thunder Jackson truly lives up to his name as a live experience – unforgettable.”
