Jason Green is a native of Northeast Arkansas. He was born and raised in Blytheville, where along with cotton and soybeans, Jason’s love for music was cultivated. He is the youngest of two children.

At a very young age, Jason was showing an interest in sharing a love with his father, a love for country music. He was always singing around the house. His love for singing continued to grow until he finally began to share his talent with family and friends at the age of fifteen. He still loves singing at family gatherings and with his father. Jason has been inspired by many of country music greats. Singers such as: Merle Haggard, Hank Williams Jr. and Vern Gosdin all have influenced his song style and selection. While Jason was growing up, his father taught him how to play rhythm guitar. His dad played the guitar in bands around Northeast Arkansas until last year when he started playing for Jason. Jason could always be found somewhere in the wings during jam sessions and gigs.

Jason Green is one of a very few artists in country music history that have earned the title, “Honky Tonker.” That’s a hard name to earn in the music business. Jason Green, George Jones, Merle Haggard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Gretchen Wilson have all earned that name for their hard driving genre of country music that leaves the ballads and slow songs on the back side of the record. These artists release the up tempo, type of feel good music when you need a song to perk up your whole attitude and make a big difference in the feelings you have for a world saturated with computers, cell phones, and pagers.
