About Me


My new King Silver Flair trumpet!
Jesse has performed on stage with Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney, Jose Feliciano, Kenny Loggins, Los Camperos (to name but a few) and has been a studio musician for countless recording artists and music videos. A graduate (cum laude) from CCNY of CUNY with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in music performance. He is just as comfortable in the recording studio as composer, arranger, multiinstrumentalist, vocalist, recording and editing engineer.
His diversified musical interpretations are representative of the world in which we live. As a result he writes music for the entire planet.
Classification has no boundaries with him. He write’s, performs and records Jazz, Salsa, Pop, Funk, New Age, Classical, R&B and experimental music. He says " An artist has to be flexible. When confronted with new musical situation’s, you must be able to adapt and change in order to grow."
"It is the ultimate musician who can translate his music to others, and be, not only the composer, but all of the instrumentalist’s and vocalist’s. I strive for this and hope to lighten your day and put you somewhere you have never been before. Much time has gone into this task. Your feedback is most welcome. Tell it like it is, and tell me what would be better or just what type of music you would like. I am inspired by the love on this site and hope to share it as well, and transform it into inspiring music.
Enjoy"
For all my devoted fans my music is now for sale.
