When asked to describe himself in one word, Jason responded with "Eclectic". Hailing from a small town in East Tennessee, Jason was raised on country music and always dreamed of singing in Nashville.
"It's been a long, crazy road to get to where I am today and it is just the beginning." Jason released a self-produced Christian/Inspirational album entitled "The Way" in 2008. After working with an agency and playing shows in TN and KY to promote the album, Jason set his eyes on Nashville and began to make a presence in the Country Music scene. "I was raised on country music and that is what feels natural to me."
Jason has performed at the world-famous TOOTSIE'S ORCHID LOUNGE in Nashville during Gary Hannan's BEER FOR BREAKFAST, COMMODORE CAFE in Nashville, NASHVILLE PALACE, and many other venues.
ARTIST PRESS ITEMS
“The road to country music stardom is long and winding, and success is often determined by how well you can avoid the potholes. For Jason Terry, however, there’s a literal road to go along with the figurative one.”
Joe Matthews - Nashville Music Guide
“Jason Terry is slowly making a name for himself and hearing himself on the radio more often. For Terry, it’s been a process and he’s definitely not an overnight success, not that Terry is complaining a bit. He’s just grateful to be able to do what he loves. Terry said he got started by “basically observing” in downtown Nashville in 2009. In 2010, he started playing at the Commodore Grille With Debbi Champion and he also landed a regular slot playing in a round at the Nashville Palace. ”
Rick Amburgey - Strum Magazine
“Those opportunities allowed Terry to meet people like Scott Collier, who plays regularly in downtown Nashville in venues like Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge. Collier, in turn, introduced Terry to Gary Hannan, who has written such hits as “Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off” for Joe Nichols and “Back When I Knew It All” for Montgomery Gentry. Terry also performed at Hannan’s Beer For Breakfast, which was held at Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge. "
