Cerys' weekly round up of the blues you need to hear, from all around the world and in all shapes and sizes!

This week, Cerys is joined by singer-songwriter Jackie Venson from Austin, Texas. Jackie graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston in 2011 - she studied composition and studio production. Originally a classical pianist, Jackie picked up the guitar shortly after graduating from Berklee, and made the giant leap from the tradition of classical music to the raw and gritty blues. Jackie鈥檚 influences include Buddy Guy, Sade and Alicia Keys, and her voice has been compared to Joss Stone and Amy Winehouse.
