Few musicians know the peaks and perils of modern music marketing as well as Jackie Venson. Prior to the pandemic, Venson had racked up opportunities that most musicians would kill for- appearances on network tv spots like The Late Show, high profile tours with artists like Gary Clark Jr, highly coveted gigs at festivals like ACL, and on and on. But it was the crash of the pandemic that arguably led to Venson’s biggest attention as the singer-guitarist’s constant live streaming efforts rocketed her to viral “fame” and top 10 placement on PollStar’s Top Livestreamers list, ahead of big names as diverse as Brad Paisley, Norah Jones, and Ben Gibbard of Deathcab for Cutie. And now her new album Ghost in the Machine is tackling the chaos and confusion of the music industry head on with one simple message: almost everything artists have been told they have to do to “make it” is no longer true and the industry as we know it is dead, but doesn’t realize it yet, and it’s up to us to release the ghost of creativity lingering inside the machine.
Longtime fans will recognize the material on Ghost in the Machine from various formats over the past few years, but Venson considers it a “do-over” of her 2020 LP Vintage Machine. “When everything went down in 2020, we didn’t really get an opportunity to put this album out the way I intended,” Venson explains, “I didn’t get a release party, I didn’t get to tour, I didn’t do any of the things you’re really supposed to do when you release an album.” But rather than accept the old industry trope that once you’ve put something out, you have to move on from it after a year or so, Venson decided to go back and recreate the album to suit the vision she now had for it, as something that was ever-shifting and evolving because the more she thought about it, the more she realized there was no reason to abide by traditional music industry tactics anymore.
“As modern artists dealing with audiences that are increasingly widespread and distracted, there’s no reason why anything we release has to stay frozen in amber while we move on to newer projects,” Venson says, “I mean, most of my current audience just discovered me in the past couple of years, and I realized so much of my older music is new to them, so why shouldn’t I redo it to make it sound more like who I am now?” That central question fits the theme of the album as well, as Venson explores the battle between staying true to tradition and embracing new ideas and techniques that so many musicians operating in genres, such as the blues, face every single day.
Lead single “Vintage Machine” explores this in depth, shifting between bubbly electro-funk and bluesy guitar rock as Venson interrogates the myth the modern industry has for musicians to be content making machines. The new video for “Vintage Machine,” directed by horror filmmaker Dakota Millett, cheekily reflects that as it shows Jackie and her band getting picked off one by one by cyborg monsters who want to turn them into musical automatons.
From Jackie Venson’s standpoint, the music industry as we have known it is a corpse held together by evil machinery and it’s only by relearning how to directly connect with one another that we can free the ghost of art

recently went to my iTunes account to listen to m purchase album Vintage Machine which have 8 songs total... great album but unfortunately the first
6 songs were no longer there just track 7 & 8. I called iTunes they told me that they have no control of what the artist decided to do. I'm still upset behind this especially seeing how I pay for the album.
@@rodriquezbailey1832 sorry for the inconvenience. I’m happy to send you a free download of the newest album, ghost in the machine which has a revamp of all vintage machine songs as well as an additional 49 minutes of music. Send me an email and I’ll send you a link: jackievensonproduction@gmail.com ❤️✌🏽
Great stuff Jackie! I heard about you years ago but got distracted before I could really get into what you're doing 🤯 Way glad I've revisited your channel, because to think I might have missed out on your music is a bit disturbing😏 In any case, keep doing what you're doing - it's so good - and wherever you take it in the future will, I'm sure, be amazing!

I love your music Jackie, love from everyone in Tasmania Australia.
For most of us, the elderly, the circle of communication expands while we are on earth. I think you've already played four albums of guitar music and songs. You are very productive and know a lot. You live in it. Happy New Year 2024! Good luck, inspiration and the realization of your musical plans!
Iconic guitar sounds great!
Thanks I’m stoked about it
Just awesome! A little George Clinton, little Michael Jackson and a touch of Billy Idol but pure Riffmaster Jackie.
FYI, wasn't trying to say you borrowed. Just was rolling with it ❤

Ms. Jackie Venson I just emailed your address thx you I really would truly like that..,
🤩It turned out that vintage can sound modern! Or does modern sound vintage? Or does real art have no expiration date and is timeless? I'm confident in the third option.
Much love and thank you 🙏🏽
awesome as always, Jackie. Still too soon to brag on you? 💙💙👏👏
RAD
I hope she does something with Tyler The Creator. She's awesome! Laced with game!
Merci !
Thank you so so much!! Happy new year may it bring blessings your way ❤️🙏🏽
