Jess Klein and Mike June Folk music
JESS KLEIN!
Over a career that spans more than a decade and a half and has won her a devoted worldwide fan base, Jess Kleinwho possesses what Mojo magazine calls "one of those voices you want to crawl up close to the speakers to listen to" has pursued a remarkable creative evolution that's seen her dig ever deeper for resonant emotional insights, while continuing to refine her eloquently melodic, effortlessly accessible songcraft.
The Rochester, NY native who now calls Austin her home began writing songs as a college student in Kingston, Jamaica, and is known for staking out brave lyrical and musical territory with such albums as Wishes Well Disguised (1998), Draw Them Near (2000), Strawberry Lover (2005), City Garden (2006), Bound to Love (2009), Behind A Veil (2012) and Learning Faith (2014) which Folk Radio UK calls "Unquestionably the finest album of her impressive career." Bootleg (2015) Jess's live, full band album captures the dynamism of Jess onstage, backed by some of Austin's top players. Jess was named a 2015 Finalist in the highly regarded Kerrville New Folk Competition.

MIKE JUNE
"Mike June has an iron spine and is unafraid enough to mix tricky realism and genuine outrage in his songs."
- Jon Langford
"Name one artist writing more relevant songs about what is going on this world; go on, I'll wait. Right. You CAN'T, can you? Told you. Mike June is all heart, surrounded by a Jersey flavored candy-coating." - Jon Dee Graham, singer, songwriter, artist
