Jack Blocker is an Americana singer-songwriter whose music is rooted in sincerity, storytelling, and a deep love for his home state of Texas. Drawing inspiration from Texan legends like Townes Van Zandt, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson, Jack describes his music as “friendly, honest, and Texan”— a reflection of both his lyrical style and the atmosphere of his live shows.Whether he’s jumping around on stage with a full band or singing solo with just an acousticguitar, Jack’s performances are captivating and compelling. “My goal is to give some new life toeach song that only exists in that moment,” he says. One particularly memorable show in Nashville was performed completely unplugged after lightning took out the power at the venue.The crowd stayed, lit the room with phone lights, and Jack played the full hour-long set without any mics or production. “It was a really special evening,” he says.
After releasing his debut single “Big Jefe” in August 2023, Jack competed as a contestant on season 22 of American Idol. First appearing on the show with a memorable performance of his original song “I Was Wong,” Jack continued to impress the judges and delight audiences, ultimately placing third on the nationally televised show.
With a much-anticipated debut album coming this fall, Jack is focused on building a lasting community around his music, staying true to his voice, and writing songs that will be remembered when people look back on folk/country music from this era. “I feel like we’re at the starting line of a race and we’re about to jump off the blocks,” Jack says. “I’m really excited.”
