"I do not have a long speech telling you how great of a musician I am, or why you should listen to any of my music at all for that matter. What I will say is that I'm an honest, caring person who shows respect to others. Life is not fair, people will use you, lie to you, treat you horrible just so they can get a leg up in the world. We can't change that, however we can chose to not be like those. All I can promise is that I will never become one of them. I would rather die as an unknown, then ever die as someone whose well known for taking but leaves behind nothing worth giving. I am myself, I am complicated. I am whatever you think I am"
-Steven File

“A diverse and dynamic talent, Jason Heeter offers up a powerful bluesy rock sound that’s complemented by a voice with equal strength and bravado. Sometimes it's funky, sometimes it's folky, but it is always grooving! A true son of the midwest, Heeter began singing in church at the age of 6, and never lost the love for performing. While studying music in college, Heeter cut his teeth both on and off campus as a singer and multi-instrumentalist establishing himself as a staple on the regional circuit. 
     After releasing the eclectic collaboration album “Deuce & Heeter – The '79 Sessions” along with colleague Deuce Denninger, Heeter is back in the studio with his band The AC's working on a new self titled record. With extensive experience, and influences ranging from JJ Cale, to Jason Isbell; from Bill Withers, to the Grateful Dead, the stylistic variety of his catalog further confirms his natural talent. You may find him at a solo performance, or featured in a number of acts, including Heet & the A.C.’s, Shugyo, Deuce Denninger Band, Ivas John Band, and Shades of Soul, but one thing is for certain. With Heeter on stage, its gonna be a good time!
