Jason DeShaw was born and raised on the prairies of Eastern Montana. He wrote his fist song on a John Deere tractor and made his recording debut on his mothers answering machine. In the early hours of September 12, 2003 Jasons dreams were visited by The Man in Black with a simple message: Never stop singing. DeShaw answered this calling by performing in 35 states, Canada, and Europe. He intends on bringing his rural country music to the world until he is 99.9 years old, after which he will pursue other adventures.
In 2003, Jason graduated from Carroll College with a B.S. in B.S. and embarked on his musical career. Blessed with a superb voice, Jason began to play sold-out engagements throughout Montana, including an acclaimed concert at the Myrna Loy Center. Having received accolades from the Montana media, he began venturing outside of his home state.
Since 2004, Jason has been on the road entertaining audiences throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe. He has opened up for Emerson Drive, The Oakridge Boys, and Little Big Town and has headlined two Bio-Diesel tours promoting its environmental benefits.
Jason has found time to record between tours and when asked about the success of his CD sales, he smilingly said, “Well they haven’t gone platinum yet, but they’ve gone aluminum!”
In 2007, Jason moved to Nashville and formed a 5-piece band which performed regularly at the world famous “Tootsies Orchid Lounge.” While all the other acts on Broadway were singing covers, Jason stood out as a guy who could get away with playing original songs. He was honored to perform a 9 day stretch through the CMA Festival entertaining packed audiences with his dynamic show. Since then, Jason has been on the road playing fairs and rodeos throughout the Northwest and Canada. In the spring of 2010, he recorded and released his 4th album, “Hi-Line.”
It’s all about “Livin’, Lovin’, and Leavin’” as Jason blends traditional country with his own new sound. With a back home feelin’ and natural stage presence, Jason’s music and personality draw in the crowd for a rockin’ good time. Whether country fan or not, you will be amazed by the song and show of Jason DeShaw!
