- KUTX Artist of the Month: Jackie Venson, October 2020
As a pianist finishing her final year at Boston’s Berklee School of Music, native Austinite Jackie Venson made a life-changing observation: guitar players were having a lot more fun. So in 2011, the twenty-one year old decided to learn a new instrument. To call her a quick study is an understatement. Today, widely acknowledged as one of the city’s best guitarists, with a handful of albums under her belt, she just taped her debut on the Austin City Limits television series (airing November 14 paired with an archival Bonnie Raitt performance). She has kept herself busy during the live music shutdown (which she will be discussing on an upcoming episode of our new Pause/Play podcast), writing, recording, playing virtual shows and making herself a passionate spokesperson against the music scene’s systemic racism.
And she has released no fewer than four (!) albums this year; the two-volume remix series Jackie the Robot - a deeper dive into the electronic side of her music, a live album recorded in 2018 at Greune Hall, Live in Texas. And coming out October 30th, her newest studio album, Vintage Machine. Machine’s single, “Make Me Feel”, originally slated to be released during a SXSW that never was, is vintage Venson. Taut, layered synth-pop frames her voice and vulnerable lyrics, sharpened by her smoldering, subtle guitar work.

You can never go wrong with Jackie.
One of THE most beautiful songs ever written
This is fantastic, but don’t let it be the only Jackie Venson you hear. She’s a modern guitar master and great on stage.
Saw Jackie Venson at the MIM in Phoenix, Az. last night, 07/24/21. This song was part of her early acoustic set. What a talent! You have to see her live to really appreciate her guitar prowess.
I still keep coming back to this one. Great riff ,great song especially then
Just found her She is an amazing talent She is the music ❤
You know that I'm listening to you and giving you thumbs up, when ever I get the chance
Of all the online performances of this song I’ve seen, acoustic or electric - including her iconic Austin City Limits acoustic version following her profound and spot-on “Say their names/Black Lives Matter” monologue - this is my favorite rendition. She’s a brilliant guitarist, of course, but the poignancy of the lyrics with the vulnerability in her voice always bring me to tears. Every single time.
What talent, respect.
Thanks..🌻
pure inspiration
