When Jesse Noll discovered the Delta blues as a teenager, his life in the Northwest was a world—and generations—away from that old time music. His evolution as an artist has spanned genres. He can be called singer-songwriter, indie, folk, rock or pop. But the guitar playing and emotional belting of the blues consistently weaves itself in Jesse’s songs, with a tilt of a hat to the musicians of long ago.
