Jason Eady is an American singer and guitarist, originally from Mississippi but now based in Texas.
He is affiliated with the Texas country music scene,[1] particularly through his evocation of an "old school honky-tonk" style of songwriting.
[2] Jason Eady grew up in Jackson, Mississippi,[3] and has been influenced by bluegrass, Don Williams and Willie Nelson.
[7] AllMusic gave Daylight and Dark a 4 star review and said, "In terms of quality, it belongs on a shelf next to Dwight Yoakam's Buenas Noches from a Lonely Room, Joe Ely's Letter to Laredo, and yes, even Willie Nelson's Phases and Stages".
[8] NPR's Ken Tucker contrasted Eady's traditionalism with Jon Pardi and said, "Ultimately, both Pardi and Eady have to confront the dilemma of all young country musicians: how to navigate the pop current that keeps country music commercially viable while connecting to a past that fewer and fewer listeners are aware of.
