You might recognize his music from the Brokeback Mountain soundtrack, but Jackie Green is so much more than that. Chasing authentic human connection through art, Green searches for “spiritual balladry” and has found it in rootsy rock hits like “Honey I Been Thinking About You,” “Gone Wanderin'” and “Trust Somebody.”
