Jackie Venson is an award-winning, Austin-based blues and soul musician. Obsessed with music from an early age, Venson immersed herself in its study, attending the Berklee College of Music to practice classical piano. During her senior year, Venson discovered electric guitar and her passion for face-melting live performance was realized. Since pivoting from classical music, Venson has honed her skills into an intoxicating blend of blues, rock, R&B and soul with heartfelt lyrics. Named Austin’s guitar player of the year in 2019, Venson just announced her “Make Me Feel” tour ahead of the release of her upcoming album, Vintage Machine.
