Jesse Aycock wrote his first song at age twelve and wrote a song that ended up on his dads debut CD when he was fourteen. He has certainly come a into his own style since then, crafting his timeless brand of music. Jesses songs capture an innocence and honesty that is hard to find, He writes everything from story songs and love songs to songs about every day life and the human condition. In Jesses music you can definitely hear the influence of early rock and folk, psychedelic country, and soul all mixed together to create his unique sound.
When Jesse sings his superbly written songs, he conveys the loneliness and longing of Gram Parsons best work with Emmylou Harris, the spirituality of the Innocence Mission, and the soulfulness of Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes. We love to play his music, weather its a homespun tape or a recording of a live show. He is the real thing,

Jesse has been billed with the Grammy nominated Blind Boys Of Alabama, Eliza Gilkyson and Dwight Yoakam. Away from his pursuits as a solo singer songwriter, Jesse has nestled in quit comfortably as a member of The Dustin Pittsley Band. His unique style of playing guitar and lap steel has helped develop this group into the award winning band they are today. Jesses lap steel playing can sometimes sound like an organ or cello, and his electric guitar playing takes the song on a new ride every night. www.thedustinpittsleyband.com
Jesse has just completed his first solo release, Lifes Ladder with producer and friend Jared Tyler. All songs except one co- write were written by Jesse Aycock. Contributing to the record are some of Tulsas finest musicians; Reed Mathis of The Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey on bass, Brian Lee studio musician for Leon Russel on keys, Josh Raymer on drums, Jared Tyler on various instruments, Don Geesling on Hammond B3, and guest Rachel Ries and Anais Mitchell on harmony vocals, Dylan Aycock on turntables, Dustin Pittsley guitar, Al Ray on bass, and Jeff Porter on Percussion. Lifes Ladder was mixed and mastered in NYC by Chuck Zwicky who has worked with Prince, Soul Asylum, and Jeff Beck just to name a few.
The musicianship is superb, and the songwriting beautiful. Folk Salad, NPR.
