Jester Muse

Jester Muse is the solo project of Calgary singer-songwriter and award-winning actor Jared Atkin, blending folk and rock with honest storytelling and hard hitting vocals.

Live performances mix original songs with familiar favourites, creating sets that are equally suited to pubs, festivals, and community events. Original material ranges from intimate ballads and sing-along anthems to driving indie rock, all arranged for solo acoustic guitar and voice.

Drawing from artists across folk, rock, and blues, Jester Muse's covers include Canadian classics like Early Morning Rain and The Night Pat Murphy Died, timeless favourites such as Rocket Man, Landslide, and Free Fallin', and blues-inspired songs like Feeling Good and Sweet Home Chicago. Strong audience banter and an engaging stage presence help every performance feel personal, relaxed, and memorable.
