Jesse was originally born and raised in Newman Lake, Washington. He started playing guitar and drums at the age of 4. Through his growing up he was always heavily involved with music. In 2003, being less than one year from graduating High school, Jesse had the opportunity to attend college but instead chose to enlist in the U.S. Army. Two weeks after graduating high school, he left for boot camp with the U.S. Army. During his near 10 years of service, he continued performing around the world when he was able. Upon his return from deployment in 2011 while still in the service, he recorded and released his first EP while stationed in Alaska. Now out of the Army and a civilian, Jesse continues to perform and is in the process of recording his second album. Jesse resides in Washington State with his wife and two children.
