Jackson has described HAPPIEST DAY OF MY LIFE as “a collision of sound, experience, and emotion.” The album draws on formative influences including The Smashing Pumpkins, Pixies, Marcy Playground, and Bright Eyes. Linda Perry, Butch Walker, and Jason Lader collaborated with Jackson as songwriters and producers on the project. Jackson’s personal songwriting remains at the center as the arrangements move toward a heavier, more dynamic sound. Its songs address healing, heartbreak, self-discovery, and finding light after periods of darkness.
The album includes the previously released singles “zombies in love,” “teenage drama,” and “stitched (on & on).” Earlier this week, Jackson made her debut morning television appearance on Good Morning America as part of the show’s 2026 Summer Concert Series. She performed “zombies in love” and “happiest day of my life” during the appearance.
Jackson is also touring in 2026 with her first-ever Zombies Tour across North America. During the summer, she has joined The Pretty Reckless on select dates while continuing her own run of shows. This fall, Jackson will take the Zombies Tour overseas for her first headline dates in Europe and the U.K., with announced stops in Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, and London.
