Jackie Venson | Texas Blues

There are guitar players who can play fast, guitar players who can play loud, and then there are artists who can make six strings feel like an extension of their soul. Jackie Venson belongs firmly in the latter category. Hailed by Rolling Stone as one of Austin’s rising stars and praised by Forbes as “an Austin legend in the making,” Venson has become one of the most exciting voices in modern blues, rock, and soul. Her performances combine jaw-dropping guitar work, powerhouse vocals, and an infectious energy that can turn a room full of strangers into a congregation.
A veteran of stages shared with artists ranging from Gary Clark Jr. and Melissa Etheridge to Alanis Morissette and Lainey Wilson, Venson has built a national reputation for shows that balance technical brilliance with genuine emotional connection. Whether she’s delivering a searing blues solo, a soaring rock anthem, or a deeply personal ballad, every song feels alive and unpredictable. Her acclaimed album Joy, appearances on Austin City Limits, and selection for Rolling Stone’s Future of Music showcase have only confirmed what audiences have known for years: Jackie Venson is a force.
Experience her live inside De La Luz Soundstage, where exposed brick, industrial mill bones softened by teal velvet, and the colorful glow of paper lanterns create the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable night of music. Arrive early to enjoy our café’s themed dinner menu and craft beverages before settling in for a performance that promises equal parts virtuosity, groove, and pure electricity.
