Jackie James Barnes (born 4 February 1986) is an Australian musician. He is a drummer, percussionist, pianist and singer. He has been performing since the age of four and has appeared on over 60 releases since 1990. He is currently the drummer in father Jimmy Barnes' band, and most recently has been drumming with The Dead Daisies and The Lachy Doley Group.

Born in Sydney on 4 February 1986, he was the third child and only son of Barnes and his wife Jane. His half-brother is Jimmy Barnes' oldest child, singer and actor David Campbell. Jackie Barnes was born while his father was touring the U.S. with ZZ Top and named after Soul singer Jackie Wilson. Within days of his birth, his mother took him and his sisters to America to join their father on tour. He is of Thai and Scottish origin.

When he was four, he joined older sisters Mahalia and Eliza-Jane for the recording sessions of their father's Two Fires album. Their voices are among the children's choir that features on the track "When Your Love is Gone".

From the age of five he formed part of the children's singing group the Tin Lids (after Glaswegian rhyming slang for "kids") with sisters Elly-May, Eliza-Jane and Mahalia. The Tin Lids recorded three albums between 1991 and 1994, all of which achieved platinum sales. They were also each nominated for an ARIA Award for Best Children's Album.
