Jackson Sevakian, a Burlington, Vermont native, is making a name for himself in the music industry as North Ave Jax. Sevakian has been surrounded by music his entire life, having been exposed to rock by his father, drummer Aram Sevakian. Jax began playing drums at the age of two and continued to do so throughout elementary school, even joining a rock band in first grade. Playing 242 Main, Burlington's legendary and now-defunct youth music club.
Mom introduced him to Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, and Red Hot Chili Peppers, among others. But it was a trip to the local library that really opened the door to hip-hop for him.
He recalls at the age of 8 or 9, he spent time listening to CDs by major artists like Flo Rida, JAY-Z, Drake, Nas, and others.
Basketball was Sevakian's other passion, which he pursued at Burlington High School.
However, music eventually took over his interests, and he lost interest in basketball.
He asserted he was fired from the team and dropped out of high school.
Jax made his music debut with the release of his single "Trust Nobody," directed by his longtime collaborator Kelly Butts-Spirito. Kelly has directed videos for artists signed to Interscope Records, Epic Records, and others. North Ave has grown in popularity in recent months. Jax has had successful releases such as "Play Dumb," as well as collaborating with BRS Kash on "Rich & Famous" in support of their Rockstar Energy-curated music program.
His newest single "Love 2 You", released November 2, 2022, is part of his debut album "Lazy, but I have goals". "Love 2 You," written by North Ave Jax and Hadihaad, has a super catchy vibe that will stick with you all day after just one listen.
