Jesse Powers is a self-proclaimed “conscious indie-pop” singer/songwriter based in Columbus, Ohio. Jesse has been singing and writing music since her childhood in Sumter, South Carolina. Beginning as an outlet to cope with the challenges typical of a middle school girl, her craft has evolved into a vessel for exploring and communicating more complex, universal ideas and questions (reality, truth, mortality, greatness, etc). Jesse’s passion for uncovering and disseminating the ultimate truth about the absolutely glorious phenomenon of being alive is the life behind her lyrics. These “big life questions” are reflected in songs like “Alex’s Song,” “Let It Slide,” and “Let Me Love You.” Her perceptive and penetrating lyricism, tumbling vocal stylings, and powerhouse pop melodies combine to create a unique and powerful sound that entertains and profoundly awakens those who listen.
Jesse can be seen playing in various live venues, cafes, and bars in Columbus and surrounding areas. She often makes appearances at the Columbus Center for Spiritual Living, an organization, designed to uplift and inspire people to be their best, most-awakened selves, and a community that Jesse considers to be the birthplace of her mission and musical career. Jesse often shares her talents nationwide at inspirational conferences and at other established spiritual organizations. Her first release, “The Youth Before,” is a collection of demos of her very early songs written between 2004 and 2010. Her second EP release, “Happiness Moves,” was a collaboration with the members of Senseless Beatings, a band she sang and wrote with briefly as an undergraduate at Winthrop University in South Carolina. Jesse’s third release and first full-length album, “Begin. A Surrender,” was recorded “live” in the studio using single takes with her music partner, Chad Warren. Her second full-length album and her first fully-orchestrated studio recording, “To Remember” will be released in summer, 2021.
