United States, Singer-Songwriter
From Chicago, IL, Grammy-nominated vocalist Justin Jesso is making his mark on the music scene as the co-writer and featured vocalist on Kygo’s platinum-certified record ‘Stargazing.’ New music from Justin is coming this Spring.
The coolest part about what I’m doing is that people will now reach out to me on Instagram and tell me how my song has changed their lives. The songs I write and I put out myself are very emotional, based off of heartbreak and relationships I’ve had, or haven’t had. I want people to feel something from my music.
The biggest obstacle was getting people to take me seriously as an artist. I would write songs and I’d send them to A&R’s as pitches for other artists—this actually happened three different times.
May the best days of your past, be the worst days of your future.
I hear the universe, I’m supposed to be a songwriter. I’m not gonna put my dream away of being an artist and singing my own songs, but the universe is telling me I need to focus in another direction right now.
