Jimi Jackson

Hailing from Auckland, New Zealand. Jimi Jackson has risen to hero status in a short space of time by producing short form ‘vine style’ videos as his interpretation of typical situations or issues modern Maoris and New Zealanders alike face. His raw and authentic presence online has gained him a hugely loyal and engaged audience. He’s taken his online comedy into the real world with sold-out comedy shows across New Zealand and Australia.

Originally a musician, Jimi published his first skit style video direct to Facebook in late 2013, which attracted viral attention from a modest fanbase. From here his content developed to a range of formats, from street style pranks, vines, reviews on items such as hot chocolate, and now famous pick up lines.

His range of popular and viral social media content makes him one of the fastest rising and most popular names in New Zealand and Australia.
