Jesse Sawyer

Hailing from the quiet country town of Middleburg, Florida, Jesse Sawyer grew up immersed in the sounds of folk, blues, and country music. Introduced to these timeless genres at a young age, Jesse developed a deep appreciation for the poetic songwriting of legends like Townes Van Zandt, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, and John Prine. Their influence is woven into his own songs, which are celebrated for their vivid storytelling and raw emotional depth. 

Jesse’s performances are marked by his ability to play harmonica while strumming his acoustic guitar, creating a rich, layered sound that transports listeners to a simpler, more soulful time. In mid-2023, at nineteen years old, Jesse stepped into the Jacksonville singer-songwriter scene, quickly making his mark with heartfelt performances across local venues, bars, listening rooms, and festivals. Now at twenty-one years old, he continues to grow as an artist, Jesse remains dedicated to carrying on the traditions of the troubadour, delivering music that speaks to the heart and honors the roots of American songwriting.
