Jackie Cook / Song Cellar

Jackie Cook started singing and playing guitar in bands in Dyersburg Tennessee during rock & roll’s infancy. By the age of 14 he and his band had performed with the legendary Carl Perkins and Charlie Rich. In Memphis at TMI Studios he had the chance to write, record with and also learn from the legendary Steve Cropper, R&B songwriter (Dock Of The Bay, Midnight Hour, Hold On I’m Coming), guitarist (Booker T and the MGs) and producer (Jeff Beck, Poco, Tower Of Power). At TMI Jackie also had the opportunity to write with another legendary songwriter Mac Rice (Mustang Sally).

Jackie was an artist on Bell Records and in the pop/rock group Caboose with a #1 hit on Stax/Enterprise Records.

When Jackie decided to move to Nashville he joined one of the all time great legends Roy Orbison. After touring the world, and with family beckoning, he opened the Song Cellar in the basement of Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI).
