Genre: Country/ Folk/ Acoustic

Jesse Terry is one of the premier song writers of our generation, channeling a culmination of legendary influences into one marketable package. Jesse moved to Nashville in 2004 to try his hand at song writing and live the dream, so to speak, where he found success almost immediately. After signing to Massville Music, Jesse consistently earned his place among Nashville’s notorious residents by hemorrhaging quality songs at an alarming rate. Some of his accomplishments include: winning grand prize in the 2003 CMT/NSAI song writing contest, winning grand prize in 2007′s John Lennon song writing contest for country music, and winning grand prize in 2011′s (round six) We Are Listening song writing awards for the title track of his new cd.

With Empty Seat On A Plane,  Jesse hopes to keep up the momentum by presenting his audience with a thoughtful collection of songs that are as pretty as they are catchy. The songs are all easily relatable stories, drawing the listener in and keeping their attention through a delivery that is both powerful and moving. The intimate guitar playing and clean tone of Jesse’s voice make the album an enjoyable listen all the way through. Haunting piano parts and atmospheric string ensembles give the songs a life of their own and Jesse’s lyrical abilities transport the listener right into the thick of the stories, making them feel as though they are part of the album itself. I’m excited about this record and I see big things in the future for Jesse Terry, not only because of his masterful song writing but because he is a really honest and sincere guy. I believe that his drive, his talent, and his countenance will pave his road to success.
