Stevie Ray Vaughan, country, K-Pop, hip-hop – she's soloed over it all on her way to TikTok viraldom

Jasmine Star

PLAYING A TWO-HOUR concert for thousands of fans is the dream for many guitarists. At only 17 years old, Jasmine Star has got the second part of that dream down, but for now, she’s condensing it down to 15-second snippets. Star is arguably the most popular guitarist on TikTok, with more than 113,000 followers. While some of the Caifornian’s videos feature her showing off singing and keyboard talents, her guitar playing, which would be outstanding for a player twice her age, is the main attraction.

“I think I started posting the videos to share my music and connect with other people and it turned out to be a really positive experience,” Star says. “I love being able to share music and interact with people online that love music just as much as I do.”
