Been a fan of Jeremy Owen for many years. Used to see him in clubs around Seattle when he played with Band Name Hollow.

Jessie’s 1st track “Whiskey Baby” introduces you to her captivating voice, drawing you into feel her emotions as she shares her stories, from the broken hearted innocence of youth onto her 2nd track “Space & Bugs”… which begs the question...

As the album plays on, her songs paint new stories in your mind, with broken memories in “The Ballad of Michael Miller” and “Girl in a Glass Case”, to dare I say love and lust, with the subtle seductions in “3 AM” and “3 AM Again” and “getting tangled in each other”...
