Bio / Background
Jess Grant writes songs that provoke and amuse, fusing lyrical intensity with diverse pop styles and working-class ethics. Raised by a father who’s tone-deaf and a mother who called sheet music “those little black dots with lines,” Jess had to look elsewhere for musical inspiration. He was drawn to the stories sung by folk singers like Ed McCurdy, the Kingston Trio, Harry Belafonte, Joan Baez and the Weavers.
Driving cross-country as a kid, Jess would look forward to hearing rock’n’roll hits like the Rolling Stones’ Satisfaction and Chuck Berry's Memphis. In high school he took up the piano and his imagination was captured by the music of Jethro Tull, Elton John, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, David Bowie, Paul Simon, early Supertramp and early Genesis.
Jess’ own music has changed over the years, and his songwriting has grown more focused.
