Every so often, humanity is blessed with an artist who transcends time, ideology, and identity and speaks to a deeper truth that resides in all humans. Jesse happens to be one of these artists. As a gift from God, he sings words that chime truth in a way that doesn't offend but instead puts humanity back together on the sane (and same) trajectory. Great voice and amazing guitar playing only help to reinforce his message.
How the hell do you write such smart, poetic, timely lyrics, let alone the music, on such a constant basis? Those finger skills that don't seem to need your attention at all are also amazing; I don't think I've ever seen you look at your guitar.
Our new folk genius! What we need is his real, clean, and honest mind! We may not always totally agree, but damn what a great, powerful, brave voice!. Kick ass Jesse, keep it up!
I legit described him to my folks as 'bob Dylan if he weren't an alcoholic ' Hadn't realized it was a popular opinion, him sounding like Dylan, Must be true.
My daughter sent me a video of yours knowing I would love your music and I was already on it. First song I heard was Cancer. This song had me rolling laughing. Good medicine.
Yep! The truth lies not between any lines - it lies in these words of this young man who could have sung in Woodstock ´69! Waht a storyteller! Thank´s!
My dog is mostly focused on sniffing and licking the grass where female dogs have been peeing. I'd take that over what we're dealing with. I wish people would stop comparing Jesse to the one folk singer they know. The sound is unique enough that he deserves to be recognized on his own merits without the constant Dylan comparisons.
Wow! Awesome! You have packed it all in this one. Very unique original! Not stock. Awesome guitar and harp tune. Soft and punchy! My new favorite. Women?
I look forward to a new song each day. Not once was I disappointed. Thanks for sharing your talent brother. and to all the fans who comment on your songs...Y'all have excellent taste in real music.
Just addicted to this shit, now! John Prine-ish, for sure but not a copycat. Very fun, unique, catchy, well executed, raw sound, clever lyrics….just a good catalogue of songs, man.
As the human of two labradors I must correct you on something - they are superb liars. If my wife feeds them and goes work they will whine at their bowls like they haven't been fed. If we had them as leaders we'd not be allowed cats, and all the steaks would be requisitioned. Nobody would be allowed to go to work, and we'd all have to sleep on the sofa because the dogs would get the beds. And I'd take it over any of the current options any day.
Yer a clever man Mister Welles. But if you’d really trust a Siberian husky … you probably haven’t met one. 😂😊 Took ours to the farmers market the other day. She almost ate the cash out of a vendor’s tip jar. Twice.
@@Jimi-h3i 😆 she’s over it. Last night she snatched a bell pepper 🫑off the kitchen table and wouldn’t let loose of it. So I let her go ahead and eat it. This is a dog that’s been known to eat an entire hot pepper *plant* . She’s chilling now. 😊
@@BC25citizen My big 10yo Black Lab managed to swallow a whole baked chicken in about 12 seconds when I turned my head to answer the phone recently! Comically the only thing left was the very end (small end) of a drumstick 🍗. When I questioned him about it He innocently looks at me like; "Dad it got up and ran out super fast. I swear"
Yep, asked my beagle/ dachshund/ Jack Russel, etc, pure bred mutt mix, Mr Bojangles, aka- Bogey, Bo, Killer- Bogey, Hammerhead, Doogledorkamoungus..the lap diving-neck- hugging- dancing- clown- dog, "You can call me Bo, you can call me Bogey, just don't call me late for dinner." ( Breathe)- If he wanted the job...He laughed and said, "Lady, I see your lips movin' but don't understand a damn thing your saying- I got morning belly here, fixin' to hurl on your bed- What I want to know is, where's my damn cookie... Be- otch?" I think that's a no ...
I am astounded how surely you will put our social situations to words that perfectly capture what we are living in! Another amazing commentary. Thank you!
some right wing hack named benny johnson reposted a song of Jesse's in a short titled "the anti woke song of the summer" so I don't have much hope but I'm praying
Lol @ 'applause' in the captions. My insomniac, agnostic dyslexia leads to many nights of lying awake in the early hrs wondering if there really IS a Dog
A fascinating young fella, opinions and musicianship of someone well beyond your years. Not to mention the huge catalogue of songs you play with ease like you've played every one a thousand times. Very cool
"we used to have different opinions, now we have different facts" Gold!
He really deserves his own spot instead of being constantly compared to Dylan or Fogerty. He's very good at being a breath of fresh air.
THIS!!
Musically, neither comparison resonates with me. He looks like Fogarty. Musically though there's a strong Prine influence.
@@Quinn37definitely agree with you on both counts. There's no doubt that he's Prine influenced and he really does look like Fogerty 🙂
Agreed
Yeah Robert Zimmerman sucks ass compared to our bit Jesse.
a songwriting machine
Age of machine
Jesse Welles doesn't exist. It's an AI construct
All ripoffs of older songs
@@NEXTLOOKING Like AC/DC then
@@NEXTLOOKINGcan’t create art in a vacuum
😂 my bumper sticker says "my dog for president". Thank you so much for this!!
I am voting for DOG 24
you spelled GOD backwards but I’m right there with you brother based chase
@@asnojleykl4319 God doesn't have a great track record. I'm voting for Dog.
Cmon, nobody wants Harris.
@@ioncewasmikey wow!! What an incredible addition to this conversation!!
@@jamaretienne6537 It would be, if you understood it.
The most honest songwriter out there..fluid as a river...brilliant lyrics
I’m 65 and it’s beautiful to hear real music again ✌️
Jesse Welles is my favorite living songwriter
Woof, man.
Dog gamnit you said it Jesse.
Glad to be here within 30 minutes of a Jesse Welles upload. Love the tunes man.
You really threw us a bone with this one Jesse!
I haven't been more excited for a new artist since 1972.
The wild rabbits that frequent my yard come up closer when your music is playing on my phone.
I love the line with the hillbilly elegy reference.
He's swimming against the current...but its awesome and the truth...and I'm 65 and a huge fan
I'm 70. Glad to find this guy before I die.

I am pretty sure this guy has an ideology. It is one I agree with tho.
Pugs are not financially responsible - can confirm! lol 🤣🐶
🤣
As much as I like the message I also love to view it as an ode to mans bestfriend
In the words of Mark Twain("the more I get to know people, the more I like my dog")

jesse is tapped in to the source
he got an extra helping when standing in the talent line............
Genius
This guy is waaay ahead of the curve.
"We used to have different opinions now we have different facts."
This man does not miss. WHERE THE HELL IS MY OMLETTE???
Our new folk genius! What we need is his real, clean, and honest mind! We may not always totally agree, but damn what a great, powerful, brave voice!. Kick ass Jesse, keep it up!
I’ve had your music on repeat all week, thank you for speaking to all of us with heart. My new favorite genre
Pay attention to this young fella, kids.
Jesse's your generation's Guthrie and Dylan.
I legit described him to my folks as 'bob Dylan if he weren't an alcoholic '
Hadn't realized it was a popular opinion, him sounding like Dylan,
Must be true.
one of those songs with one of those cheeky smiles on his face
I am fully convinced that the same God who once sent Bob Dylan sent Jesse Welles
ABSOLUTELY!
I think of him as our (very worthy) substitute John Prine. 😊
Funny either way But please tell me you knew Bob Dylan claimed he sold his soul to the devil
you mean the same Dog ?
If he doesn't go down in history as a folk hero legend then they probably just don't exist anymore
One nation under dog. He’ll be as loyal as he can be, with a childless cat lady for VP.
Been spending more time with my dogs than people lately...
... keep it up brother, we feel ya.
Perfect JD Vance truth.
Johnny Prine's spirit lives on. Totally fun. He's great.
My daughter sent me a video of yours knowing I would love your music and I was already on it. First song I heard was Cancer. This song had me rolling laughing. Good medicine.
*pause*
(Repeat line)
That was good 😂
One Nation Under Dog - I could get behind that!
Bill Paxton with the incredible songwriting skills of John Prine and Dylan! Jesse, you have an incredible mind!
Haha dang he does look like Paxton.
Don't brag on him too much, it will go to his head. Of course he's talented, but let him stay humble...
I love how he gets more comfortable as I watch more videos. Please keep it up. This is beautiful.
John Prine is definitely smiling while he decays because you got the torch
Yep! The truth lies not between any lines - it lies in these words of this young man who could have sung in Woodstock ´69! Waht a storyteller! Thank´s!

JD Vance will play this atbhis rally with 0 irony
I would also vote for a dog over these terrible politicians. As you said, at least dogs are loyal
Jesse you legitimately fill me with inspiration whenever you make a new song. I see a beautiful world ahead.
It don't get any better than this folks.
It really doesnt
“He’s adVANCEd”
Just talked myself outta going to Walmart. Perfect timing.👍🎸🐝
My dog just turned 15. This may be his last year. He's been as loyal as he can be. Him's the goodest boy. So are you, Jesse. High praise.
There is a dog in America who is the mayor of a town. It’s worked out well so far! 😂
I JUST CHECKED AND HE WAS ON HIS 3RD TERM
Oh dude! Serious commentary in the form of cheery irony.
I'm here to warm myself in the glow of your atomic sarcasm. 🎉
Wow! Awesome! You have packed it all in this one. Very unique original! Not stock. Awesome guitar and harp tune. Soft and punchy! My new favorite. Women?
You had me sold, then you pulled out the harmonica. Now I'm hooked. Haha 😅😅
Definitely can trust a dog more than any politician, lyrics to all Jessie's music are refreshing.
Great song…but i quite literally stepped in a fresh pile of dog crap today, with my good flip flops on😬💁🏼♀️
@@justAmy51 you need to get some boots with straps 😆
Man, you blow my mind!!! We need more artists like you these days! Hell, you need to run for president.
Dude. You totally rock.
Right on! I'd vote for a dog for sure!
Protest with style and grace, preach!
How the plants have grown along with the music. Fantastic !!!
I look forward to a new song each day. Not once was I disappointed. Thanks for sharing your talent brother. and to all the fans who comment on your songs...Y'all have excellent taste in real music.
"but he's advanced." I hear you man.
Wrecks vance in this. Love it.
I like this dude's sense of humor!😂😂😂
Once again whipped up another banger with amazing lyrics! Absolutely love it 🥰
Press some vinyl already, we are buying...
this might be my favorite song so far
Just addicted to this shit, now! John Prine-ish, for sure but not a copycat. Very fun, unique, catchy, well executed, raw sound, clever lyrics….just a good catalogue of songs, man.
Is there no end to this guy’s genius?? Sure hope not…❤❤❤❤
It never ends. HE's Smart and Extremely talented. And They keep feeding Him material.

Yup ! That's a Husky alright. Probably still mad you stoped him or her too. Haw Hawoooooooowooooowoooo Bless you Amen

Netanyahu is an excellent speaker.

I love this. A Golden Retriever ain't a great deceiver, you got that right! Sing it!
This guy is the most important in Americana!
Jesse, you may be this generations John Prine or maybe Bob Dylan. Thank you.
I didn’t have a favorite until now.
So good.

I will be voting for "dog."
lol same
Oh holy snit. I am laughing so hard.
(Vance)
Can confirm that I would rather have a dog for president than our current options
If you can't see the stark difference between these two candidates I can't help you.
I'm getting some Dylan vibes here. And I hate Dylan, but I love Mr. Welles. Keep it up brother, your speaking for so many.
One nation Underdog ! ! 😂. 😂. 😂.
I am astounded how surely you will put our social situations to words that perfectly capture what we are living in! Another amazing commentary. Thank you!
🎵...if we're gonna act like them, they might as well lead... 🎵
Woof Man...😂❤
I hope the world is smart enough to realize this guy is the bob Dylan of our time
some right wing hack named benny johnson reposted a song of Jesse's in a short titled "the anti woke song of the summer" so I don't have much hope but I'm praying
as in they aren't able to read the sarcasm in his songs lol? even better
I rarely comment on anything, but, this was so much fun, also you are very talented, keep it going
RIP To my old friend Charlie the Australian Blue cattle dog loyal to the end . good tune Jesse🇦🇺💙
I'd even take a shitzu, cause they arent out to git you...
this is more punk rock than modern punk rock
It’s out there you just gotta know where to look
Exactly
This guy is saving lives. PERIOD.
Sure as hell made me feel less alone
22 seconds in and it’s full of depth and truths. Thank you💪✍️❤️🙏🇺🇸
this guys is a real creative genius popping out so many songs every month
Holy f'k-o-lations! This is brilliant and hilarious
You had my mind, now you have my heart. My dog Cheez for President!
As a harmonica player, good work on that harp.
Fuckin woof man
