Recent Message from Jesse!:
Hey Everyone! The week before last, I got to come home for a really quick
visit to take my NY State Regents exams, which are school exams I had to take to finish Junior Year. Now, I'm back in LA and
totally done with school for the summer, which is going to make working easier, because I won't have to work a full day plus
3 hours of school!
I'm really happy to tell you that I'm officially signed with Buena Vista Hollywood Records. This
is the same label that Hilary Duff is on and I think it's a really good place for me. As you know, I'm already working on
an album. This past weekend we shot the album cover and a new video. It really feels like everything is coming together.
After
my CD comes out, and Summerland goes on a long enough break, I'm going to do a real tour, and get to go more places, and see
more of you than ever before. There is still nothing like performing live, and I can't wait. I will forever be grateful for
all your past support and I hope I get to see you in the future.
Love, Jesse
