Born in Staffordshire, David Jackson (as he was then known) grew up in Portsmouth in the Paulsgrove area and he attended the City of Portsmouth Boys School.

He also collaborated with Lincoln Thompson in reggae crossover. In 1981, Jackson produced an album for the British power pop group The Keys. The Keys Album was the group's only LP.
