Jason grew up in Lampasas, Texas listening to Johnny Gimble's western swing fiddle, Western Swing by Bob Wills and Asleep At The Wheel, Texas Honky-Tonk and lots of traditional country music.
Since that time he has played with folks like Don Walser, Jody Nix and Clay Walker. He's also backed people like Darrell McCall and Johnny Bush. Currently, he's the fiddle player for Asleep At The Wheel. He's been playing with The Wheel since 1996.
The legendary Bill Mack said about Jason and "Texas Fiddle Man":
"Just when we become a bit disgusted over the condition of our country music industry, along comes an act that 'blows th' mind'! In this case, it's Jason Roberts.
Thanks to the great production job performed by Ray Benson and the featured star ... and the accompaniment of some of the finest musicians to be found in Texas ... Jason gives us one of the most tremendous jobs in western-swing to be heard in years!
Take any tune on this compilation and you feel the atmosphere of George Strait, Asleep-At-The-Wheel ... and you could swear Bob Wills was somewhere in the background with a big smile on his face!
This is a CD worthy of airplay anywhere good country music is appreciated."

Of all the wonderful things I have to say about this D-E-L-I-G-H-T-F-U-L CD (and there are many), I first have to say that this is THE BEST driving music you ever heard! Traffic jam, bad weather, irate drivers? Who cares? Robert's CD takes you away to a land of infinite patience, good nature and a whole lotta' love for this (amazing) 'everyday' world we're all livin' in. I NEVER tire of hearing his music in my car.
If you've never heard of (living legends) George Strait, Johnny Gimble, George Jones or (the great) Bob Wills, you're in for a real treat. And if you think you don't like country music, Jason Roberts will blow you away. I still can't get over the fact that this is his first CD. It's breathtaking. A fine salute to a collection of musicians he's loved since he was a kid. A priviledge and a complete joy for all the rest of us!

Great Stuff. Might even start listening to Country!

My music taste is more electronic/rock and roll, but this gave a great taste of country music. The fiddling makes your feet dance, the songs can be humorous, and I can listen to the CD again and again. Big kudos, and I'm sharing the music with my friends.
