@@user-hr5xj3wy3hhow u might go "take it away mark" if ur drummers name is mark before a drum solo or whatever. he did that but to his own hands cuz hes performing solo n it was a guitar section
Welles is masterful with his lyrics and reflecting the our country in our most trying times. America more than ever needs this generation's John Prine, Bob Dylan or Woody Gutherie. Ty Jesse Welles, this is Punk Folk as it gets.
Not true. Look up "Won't fence us in" "Bound and Determined " and "Home on the Rage" All by a fella named Nick Shoulders and his band, The Okay Crawdad.
Hey, I just wanted to upload this for everybody who may have missed it and wanted to be there like myself. Hope y’all enjoy. If you do enjoy it please consider subscribing to my channel. Thank you and Thanks for a great performance Jesse.🤘
Thank you! I came across to him about a month ago and I I'm so pleased to find where the inheritance of Pete Seeger, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Arlo Guthrie, Country Joe and the Fish, Joan Baez, and others whose poetic accurate observations of our human condition more accurately reflected are lives and gave us something to sing while we let our protest be known. ✌🏼
@@bigdusty i 100% agree with your comment but i do think it should be pointed out that he has been making music for at least 6 years lol (no shot I knew that, i looked it up. but at the very least he performed in 2017 with two guys for paste magazine)
Modern day Bob Dylan. Your songs give me hope that the next generations will keep the faith and fight the good fight. Love your music and your messages!
I can’t begin to express in words how much I fucking love this dude. There’s no one that comes close in talent, style, artistic expression, anything. Baffled that he hasn’t reached 1 mil views on every video. Please keep them coming Jesse. We love you and everything you do
So glad Jesse got his time to shine at Farm Aid. Truly one of the best singer/songwriters coming up right now, and a fantastic guitar player as well. True talent
You'd like sierra ferrell too - she was a busker for over a decade, and just had her first (or 2nd?) US tour headlining! Her covering "Years" is amazing and her voice sounds like it's from the 30s - ua-cam.com/video/_2W8kCk1qnU/v-deo.html
Jesse Welles has become my favorite song writer, super glad to see him singing these songs out to the world, as he does, at Farm Aid! Awesome tunes Jesse, super inspiring! "Hold me Like I'm Leaving", rocks bro! That songs is a Rocket of a Tune!! War isn't Murder; a fine message to hold close!! Free Free Palestine!

Been following Jesse on Instagram for a while. Stoked he got to play Farm Aid! Hangin with Mellencamp & Dave Mathews. WOW Hitting like Bob Dylan with a dash of John Prine. Singing what needs to be heard. Thank you, Jesse, and thanks for the upload @Rustiesloan !
I feel exactly how I did watching Phil Ochs and Pete Seeger concert videos as a kid. Like maybe there are still some people out there carin and expressing it. Sendin so much love and excitement for the rest of your work aaaaaall the way from the emerald isle - Éire says thank you !!
Jesse sings what needs to be said and heard by the people getting shafted in this world. Where talent meets initiative. He’ll change the world with his performance, I’m sure of it.
@@lisalong1086 just to let you know this is not Jesse‘s channel. You can reach him on UA-cam Instagram and TikTok and Facebook Facebook is a little bit more difficult because they’re a lot of fan accounts.

Just when I started thinking there was nothing original left, or that whatever original stuff there is wouldn't be recognized. Ahh. This guy is excellent.
My first time hearing him and holy mammoth that was intense and beautiful. What a strong statement with three songs. I can't decide how many times I should rewatch this before I check out his other music. That's gonna be hard to top.
His songs will make you think, listen carefully and grasp the meaning of his lyrics. I love the line in that last song about War , that in 20 years you can visit the strip , enjoy your trip. Time will tell if he is right
Thanks for sharing.. I been listening to everything He's written for weeks now and I am in Love w/This kid and His tenacity towards this corporately $eized Nation of material magic or B$. Much Love to everybody who sees it.
I love the line let's talk about A dead people. There are droves of in the US. I know that Jesse is addressing the Gaza Strip. But the dead people may not. This is a subject that is close to my soul, heart, and is so tragic. Thinking about it breaks my ❤. It needs to be protested. Thanks Jesse.
One of today's best for sure. I had found and been listening to him for a few months before I learned he is from my home state. Awesome to see all shows on his upcoming tour are SOLD OUT!
It's kind of crazy how fast this guy grew on me. I've known about him for less than 24 hours, but I know a few of his songs by heart and would be pumped to see him in concert.
I quit listening to the radio years ago because I know all the music and I love it but need something new something thats yesterday but tomorrow. That's jesse welles

bob dylan stole most of his songs i think and his lyrics arent near as good as this kid. I was thinking more like towns van zant
Bob Dylan was like woody Guthrie, and Woody Guthrie was like somebody else. If you listen more closely you'll find them all unique.

Nick shoulders just preaches and it ruins his performance. Jesse walks through a troubled world and incorporates it into his himself.
If you think Jesse Welles is the only one writing protest songs you don't listen to enough music!
“War isn’t murder” may very well be right up there with “blowin in the wind”.
Yeh and I love the way Jesse covered a couple Dylan songs after a lot of people were comparing the two lol
It's an instant classic. Feels like it was written along time ago.
