Jaysen Starky

Jayson Starkey is a Texas-born songwriter whose music pulls from a lifetime of influences such as blues, rock, and roots music shaped by everything from front-porch radios to late-night stages. Growing up between city life and rural Texas, he developed a style that feels both grounded and wide open, built on lived experiences and a deep connection to the music that raised him.

Starting out on piano at a young age and later moving into guitar and live performance, Starkey spent years honing his craft as a sideman before stepping into his own as a songwriter and performer. Along the way, he’s drawn inspiration from legends like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert King, and Jimi Hendrix, blending those influences into a sound that’s equal parts reflective and driving.

Now based in Oklahoma, Starkey delivers shows that feel honest and lived-in, whether he’s leading a full band or playing it stripped down.…
