Some of the tracks from the album, like the title track ‘Things That Matter’, ‘Way Down In My Whiskey’, etc are already being streamed over all the major music platforms.
The track ‘Way Down In My Whiskey’ is more like a remedy track to get over past and ex with the intoxication of liquor and music. On the other hand, ‘Things That Matter’ is more like an interrogation of things in life that make us happy.
The upcoming album ‘Where have You Gone’ laments for country music as this album is the first musical album work with an original context in the last six years.
Jackson has been a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and thus the anticipation got ever higher.

The track ‘That’s the Way Love Goes’ is covered in the memory of Merle Haggard.
