This album is dedicated to Neal Casal.As a versatile multi-instrumentalist, Tulsa’s Jesse Aycock is an in-demand sideman who has lent his talents to several national acts over the years, while also being a member of Hard Working Americans, a supergroup that featured Todd Snider, Neal Casal, Dave Schools, Duane Trucks, and Chad Staehly. He’s also recorded and toured with Elizabeth Cook, The Secret Sisters, and many others. With this self-titled release, Jesse stands center stage with thirteen beautifully executed songs, showcasing his soulful, signature blend of masterful musicianship, poetic lyricism, and thoughtful songwriting. Listeners won’t be disappointed with the album’s exploration of Jesse’s myriad influences. The lovely, mournful “Sadder Than a Sunset” reflects his acoustic, country-folk roots, while “Past Life” rocks a deep topic with an upbeat pop sensibility and “Under The Gun” swirls with a psychedelic refrain.
