Jackie Venson on Tour

It's no coincidence that Jackie Venson was born in the Live Music Capital of the World, Austin, Texas. She comes from some of Austin's music royalty, her father being the acclaimed Austin musician Andrew Venson.

After cutting her teeth on the Austin music scene, Venson released her first studio album, The Light in Me, in 2014. She's released three more since then, Joy in 2019, Vintage Machine in 2020, and Love Transcends in 2021. She has played stages worldwide as a headliner and with major acts such as Gary Clark Jr., Melissa Etheridge, Aloe Blacc, and Citizen Cope.

With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and shows being canceled, Venson committed to connecting with fans via live streaming and earned the No. 10 spot on Pollstar's Top Music Live Streamers of 2020 alongside Norah Jones and Questlove.

She made her national television debut as a headliner on the 46th season of "Austin City Limits" on November 14, 2020.

Venson is a passionate artist, combining introspective lyrics with entrancing guitar solos. The Austin-American Statesman called her "A Gary Clark Jr.-level talent." See the talent for yourself -- get tickets to see Jackie Venson the next time she plays in a city near you.

Jackie Venson Live in Concert

Jackie Venson was born in Austin, Texas, on February 5, 1990. She's the youngest of nine siblings. Her father, Andrew Venson, is a famed Austin musician.

She majored in composition and music production at the prestigious Berklee College of Music, graduating in 2011.

Venson says her most significant musical influence has been Disney, especially the masterful Lion King arrangements by Hans Zimmer and Elton John.

In an interview with Terry Lickona on "Austin City Limits," she explains how she learned to sing: "I took voice lessons when I was 16, but where I really learned to sing was hosting karaoke for three years. If no one's singing the host has to sing! It was training -- I was singing every night."

But the standout R&B, blues, rock and soul singer isn't just another pretty voice. She's also a talented guitar virtuoso, as you'll see in her live performances.

  • Jackie is Spectacular!

    by Jimbeau on 6/9/25Jo Long Theatre - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    Her guitar solos are mesmerizingly beautiful and when interwoven with her voice and uplifting lyrics create a uniquely beautiful sound

  • Super Talented with Great Stage Presence

    by Jan from Atlanta on 4/5/25Vinyl - AtlantaRating: 5 out of 5

    My first time to see Jackie and really liked the show. Only Jackie and drummer Rodney Hyder (who is blind) perform. The rest comes from a track. While my preference would be live players, she pulls it off well and the sound was good. She is very talented on guitar and has a cool and unique voice. She has plenty of energy and connects well with the audience.

  • Great Artist

    by Brown on 4/5/25Vinyl - AtlantaRating: 5 out of 5

    Talented and energetic performer. Enjoyed the whole show.

  • Not a Blues Artist - tier 1 R&B Music Producer!

    by Vern Vartdal on 1/28/25Antone's Nightclub - AustinRating: 5 out of 5

    Jackie Venson's new release The Love Anthology is an amazing work that she and her sound engineer reproduce Live flawlessly! My suggestion is to stream the album LOUD on your best audio situation. First track on you will hear great R&B Pop with booming bass extremely well produced. Then buy a ticket, because her band Rocks! She will come to you in the US all across the southeast soon, then all directions from Chicago. Everywhere by year end. This will bust out. Be there!

  • Love Jackie!

    by Neance on 1/19/25Antone's Nightclub - AustinRating: 5 out of 5

    She’s got a terrific voice and can she play the guitar. I also love her eyes! I’m hoping we can get her to RI for the Newport Jazz Festival. If you need to sit, you’ll have to get to Antone’s early as there’s very little seating.)

  • Simply Amazing

    by Tyreekw on 1/12/25Rating: 5 out of 5

    Jackie was simply amazing. From beginning to end, she had me captivated. She’s energetic and you can feel the passion behind every beat and every lyric. My first time seeing Jackie, did not disappoint. Just amazing and a must see
