Hey Jessie Fans!
On December 6, 2011 Jessie did a show at the Mercury Lounge in NYC. I heard the show was great. Jessie performed new songs from Little Spark. Here’s some pics that I found from Liz, the setlist & a link to the write up that she did on the show. Also a pic from @MissGeeNay, pic from bong-er , three videos from youtube & a tweet from Jessie about the show. Also a link to Jessie’s performance on NYC radio & a blog that was done about her today. I hope all you Jessie fans that went to the show had a great time. Enjoy! (Top pic from Liz)

Blog about Jessie
I first saw Jessie Baylin many years ago when she was a special guest at a show my friends in ALO (Animal Liberation Orchestra) were playing at the Troubadour. I was immediately impressed by her voice. I remember she did a cover of a pretty famous song and killed it (wish I remember what it was!). Since then, I’ve mostly heard her name mentioned in conjunction with Kings of Leon drummer Nathan Followill – her husband as of 2009.
I noticed a new album from her, “Little Spark”, in my stacks of CDs at home but it wasn’t until Jason started playing the single “Hurry Hurry” that I really started to take notice. She moved to Nashville to live with Nathan, but she’s far from country. The overwhelming stylistic note is classic Brill Building-era pop (even the sound of that bell right at the beginning).
The song is full of richness — her voice, the backing vocals, simple orchestration – it just strikes all the right notes.
Her album will be out January 17. Enjoy!
