About the boys
Originally from Melbourne, now on the Gold Coast, the boys both grew up in musical families. Studying a range of classical and modern material from a young age, although separate, both shared an appreciation for performance which carried them onto stages worldwide. From local venues to Live TV performances, both are comfortable in either setting and anything in between. Jax and Josh now combine passions to deliver a premium industry product and entertainment experience to wedding couples and corporate events nationally
Jackson Thomas
Jackson Thomas, runner up for The Voice Australia 2014, Jackson captured hearts across the country as Ricky Martin's 'last man standing', Ricky himself stating, '...there is no one else in the competition with [your] level of emotion.' After a sell-out, post-The Voice tour he also toured the country with Ricky Martin, Robbie Williams, and Delta Goodrem, Jackson is currently touring intermittently with the Beatles 'All You Need Is Love' tour with Rai Thistlethwayte (Thirsty Merc), Jack Jones (Southern Sons) and Ciaran Gibbon (INXS). Recently receiving a standing ovation at Sydney Opera House for his performance of the Beatles classic, 'Let It Be' with the tour's 50 piece orchestra.

Josh Needham
Behind every good man, is a good... man. In this case, it's part-time touring musician (Taylor Henderson, Nathaniel, Harrison Craig), music director, keys player and backing vocalist Josh Needham. Between tours and releases, Josh was voted to represent Australia in Beijing '14 at the Annual National Spring Gala. The joint Triple J/ABC/BBC venture saw Josh perform live for over 750 million people across all of Asia. Unlike most other acts, Josh has utilised his experience as a professional Music Director to produce a specialised, industry-class performance for weddings and corporate events, bringing the sound of a full band to the Jax N Josh duo, without the cost of the full band! (Although a full band can still be booked!)
When not building shows/performing for corporate events and weddings, Josh also works for a successful non-profit Youth Music & Mental Health Program called Sing It Out Australia featuring an impressive list of other industry artists as well as industry music online education platform Talent College.
