  • Stevie Jackson, born January 16, 1969, in Glasgow, Scotland, is a Scottish musician and songwriter. He plays lead guitar and sings in the Glasgow-based indie band Belle & Sebastian. Jackson's guitar playing is very distinctively retrogressive and melodic, with a heavy use of reverb and minimal effects. He has, in the past, been nicknamed 'Reverb' or 'Stevie Reverb' due to his use of the said effect. Prior to joining the group, Jackson was a member of the now-defunct The Moondials, a band that released a single on Electric Honey, a label that would later issue Belle & Sebastian's first album, Tigermilk. The Moondials experience was a pleasant one for Jackson, and it took a great deal of work for nominal Belle & Sebastian frontman Stuart Murdoch to convince him to join his group. At the time, Murdoch was playing the open mic circuit in Glasgow as a solo act, and it was at one of these performances—at The Halt Bar—that Jackson first saw Murdoch play. In the beginning, the band existed mostly as an outlet for Murdoch's songwriting. Since the band's third album, The Boy With The Arab Strap, other members have begun to contribute, Stevie Jackson chief amongst them. All of the band's subsequent full-lengths have featured compositions by Jackson, and he wrote the band's 2001 single "Jonathan David" as well as "To Be Myself Completely" for 2006's The Life Pursuit. His songs are noticeably different from Murdoch's compositions—they tend to be shorter and less introspective, opting for catchy 1960s-style pop more often that the folky melancholia that defined Belle & Sebastian's early releases.
  • Stevie Jackson és un músic i compositor escocés. Toca la guitarra solista i canta a la banda de twee pop de Glasgow Belle and Sebastian. La seua forma de tocar la guitarra és melòdica i recorda als anys 60, amb un ús important de la reverberació (fins al punt de rebre el sobrenom de "Stevie Reverb") i molt pocs efectes. Abans d'unir-se al grup, Jackson va ser membre de The Moondials, que van publicar un senzill al segell Electric Honey. L'experiència a The Moondials va ser molt agradable per a Stevie, i al líder de Belle and Sebastian Stuart Murdoch li va costar molt convèncer-lo per a que s'unira al grup. En aquella época, Murdoch tocava sol a un circuit de "micròfon obert" a Glasgow, i va ser a un d'aquests concerts (al Halt Bar) on Jackson va veure Murdoch tocar per primera vegada. Al principi, la banda existia només com a expressió de les composicions de Murdoch, però des del seu tercer àlbum, altres membres han començat a contribuir. Stevie ha sigut el membre que més ha contribuït, i des d'aleshores ha contribuït a tots els àlbums de la banda i ha composat el single de 2001 "Jonathan David. " Les seues cançons són clarament distintes de les de Murdoch: solen ser més curtes i menys introspectives, optant per pop del estil dels anys 60 enlloc del habitual folk melancòlic que ha definit els primers discos de Belle and Sebastian.
