Jesse MacLeod has been given the gift of a naturally distinctive, soulful voice. Being the son of bluesman Doug MacLeod, Jesse began absorbing the Blues at a very young age. Vinyl records of artists like Albert King, Muddy Waters and Son House played regularly through the stereo of his childhood home, this influence is clearly apparent in him today. Also heavily influenced by contemporary singer/songwriters such as Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell and Ryan Adams, he has carved out a unique sound blending the best of today and yesterday.
Since 2008, Jesse has played over a thousand events including weddings, private parties, corporate events, house concerts, etc. He is known for his vast list of cover songs ranging anywhere from classic rock (Eagles, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Lynard Skynard) to Soul (Al Green, Smokey Robinson, Otis Redding) to Modern Rock (Oasis, Green Day, Pearl Jam) to Oldies (Elvis, Johnny Cash, Van Morrison, James Taylor) to Pop/Top 40 (Selena Gomez, Ed Sherran, Adele, John Mayer, Jason Mraz, Lorde.)
He has had the honor of receiving the award of BEST PERFORMER in the Westcoast Songwriters - Songwriter Competition in Hollywood and was a TOP THREE MALE FINALIST in the So Cal Live Music Competition. Two of his songs "As The Summer Wanes" and "Eyes on the Horizon" from his In Between Homes EP have both been featured on episodes of NBC's THE VOICE.
