Growing up, Jaxon (born Jackson Taylor Robert Crawford) held an avid fascination for all things art - commonly belting Broadway classics at the top of his lungs, devouring comic books and fantasy tales, and sketching on any piece of paper he could get his little fingers on. At an early age, he understood that he was very different from the other kids in his Catholic School. He left that all behind him in 2006, when he was accepted into a performing arts magnet school in St. Petersburg, Florida. He finally found his niche, writing pop and jazz songs with other like-minded, artistic students.

From there, he studied popular music concepts and vocal music at a local college, while modeling for Paris-based photography agencies by day, and performing at local restaurants and bars by night. Soon after leaving school, his love for comic books and superheroes led him to turn his modeling career toward cosplay and costuming, eventually becoming popular with the Tampa nerd convention community. There, he began performing full-length concerts featuring covers and his own original music. Rave reviews and critical acclaim followed, his eclectic style and mastery of pop music making him an instant hit.

Following a well-received run as a featured performer at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, he moved to Atlanta, Georgia in early 2015 to focus on his singing and film acting career. He has begun writing his first studio album, entitled &Weapons&, due for release in 2016. Jaxon still to this day holds his intense passion for art and music to the highest regard, and hopes to one day change the world utilizing his many talents.
