Esric Jackson launches new CD, ‘Second Generation ‘, and did it, his way – By TREVINE RODRIGO IN MELBOURNE<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

“Ain’t no mountain high enough, Ain’t no valley low enough, Ain’t no river wide enough” was the lyrics of\u00a0 a famous song by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell about courage and commitment to overcome the unsurmountable.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Esric Jackson is blessed with that rare mindset in his life as a musical icon and one that takes on and overcomes all barriers and obstacles in his path.<\/span><\/p>\n

But he has now been chartered into unfamiliar territory and surrendered to his biggest fans and the ultimate love of his life, his grand kids.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Two of Esric’s many CD’S\u00a0 was dedicated to daughter Candice and hubby Toufic’s kids Mischa and Cruz. The first entitled “Kiss an angel good morning ” to Misha followed by “Counry Cruzing”\u00a0 to Cruz, two popular productions from reviews, which has sparked a question from Candice’s third, Makai and younger daughter Tatum and Richard’s kids, Brooklyn and Zayn,\u00a0 Pappa, “What about us?”.<\/span><\/p>\n

Caught in the unanticipated dilemma, and under the pump, Esric, who dotes on his grandkids, has decided to launch what he assures is his ‘final CD’\u00a0 entitled “Second Generation” to appease his family, and to make it a level playing field. Popular Australian singer John Farnham and a few others did many ‘final’ concerts too, said close friends Audrey and Breno Rosairo.<\/span><\/p>\n

The popular musican, with a streak of a lovable larrikin, has been the nerve centre of most Sri Lankan musical events in Australia and his love and commitment to produce sell-out events has been well documented over a long period.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Esric has faced challenges on many fronts but has stood steadfast and overcame them all, albeit being subjected to the irreparable loss of the love of his life, wife Sandra, who was sadly taken away in her prime five years ago.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With Sandra, they were unchallenged as a dynamic musical duo. But despite her untimely demise and the ensuing void and his own personal setback fighting cancer thereafter, he returned to pick up the gauntlet and pursue his life’s mission that was gifted to him, music.<\/span><\/p>\n

Esric and Sandra have over the journey produced many CD’S and DVDS. Some of them dedicated to their family which was at the heart of all they did.<\/span><\/p>\n

As the family kept growing with daughters Candice and Tatum producing offspring of their own, the focus of Nanna and Pappa expanded to share a wider wingspan.<\/span><\/p>\n
