Mr. Welles, like it or not, you are quickly becoming the voice of a generation. You poses the soul of a poet and the heart of a musician and those of us lucky enough to have been around to experience Dylan, Seeger, Baez, Mitchell can recognize original authentic talent when we see it. fame and fortune will soon present itself , I pray you have the wisdom to navigate what is ahead . It is not your responsibility to live up to the expectations of others stay true to yourself and you will be fine. I hear so many influences in your music not just those aforementioned people like Jorma Kaukonen, Nick Drake and even a little James Taylor. Beware the " Machine" that has strangled the life out of music today but I digress. At the end of the day there is nothing wrong with being able to provide for yourself and your family. Good luck and God Bless.
We’re so casually witnessing the beginning of a very famous artist, the beginning of him becoming more famous than he already is. Song after song is something you would hear on the radio. Something your grandpa or grandma would play. An old young man in a new world
You know they always say it takes ten years to be an overnight success. And here he is. Today I found the RUclips channels for Dead Indian with eleven-year-old live acoustic recordings of songs he's preformed outdoors this year. His song, 'Init to win it' says it all. Staying power.
@@CensoredbyRUclips-1955 were not here for hate and bullshyt. Why not try to be a little more encouraging to your fellow man, he's obviously on the right track, because he's here with us... And we're here because of Jesse's great talent... Let's not tarnish what we did not create... Please and thank you
I keep seeing new songs and think ‘nobody can keep writing great songs this often’ but they’re all killer no filler straight from the heart, the true human experience unfiltered
Jesse your more than a poet, we know that. Your prolific relevant writing you are a "wordsmith" with a message every citizen needs to hear. Sculptors sculpt, painters paint, & writers write with uncertain dark days ahead there will be more to write about. Thank you for posting.
Since I first stumbled onto your music, you just get better and better. Your the most talented artist I’ve heard the last 20 year, I listen to your music every single day. Usually with a new track you’ve got them coming out so quick 😂
When Billy Strings was brand new and unknown, *I KNEW* he was the real deal. *Same with Jesse.* It won't be long till he's gone BIG TIME. I just hope to phuk he doesn't let it go to his head. Ya know? If you read this man, stay simple. Stay a simple kind of man. Remain something you love and understand! Jesse stay a simple kind of man. Won't you do that for all of us, if you can.
Love the songs like this which aren't directly tied to contemporary news-worthy events. I like how prolific Jesse is to make songs about issues in-the-moment, but songs like this are immediate anytime-classics.
Soooooo great to hear a great lyricist again. Feels like it’s been years since I heard someone like this. Absolutely loving all your stuff dude. We need a poet like you now
Much like Dylan’s rise, I think Jesse’s organic popularity is a sign of things to come. Music is and has always been very cyclical, and we’ve had about 20 odd years of moguls, and super producers much like the 1930’s through the late 50’s. I guess Jesse here can be happy that nobody will be throwing beer bottles at him while screaming “Judas” since this guy has always “been electric” Thank you Jesse, for spurring on my own creativity after being in an artistic slump for years since Covid shut down all my plans and premonitions.
Just recently turned 40 years old and have really been through it / lived hard thus far in my life. Went through “a spiritual awakening” of sorts this past year and this song speaks to my soul - quite literally…. I’m going to sew it. Thank you so much Jesse.
Aside from being an unbelievably wonderful singer, songwriter, poet, guitarist, etc, Jesse must have one helluva memory for his masterful and audacious lyrical output! ❤❤❤❤❤
I want to say something. But you've hit my feelings with this, and I don't know what I really want to say. We've lost a lot of freedoms. And I thank you, Jesse, for making and sharing this pure truth music with all of our wondering souls.
@kob42141 If you're an American citizen and you pay attention, you should have noticed that from the 1970s to now, we as a people have less freedoms and more enslavement. You must have your head up your or someone else's ass to ask me this. Do your own research.
@ I do. I would say at 64 years old there’s not one thing that I can’t do or has been taken away that I could do at 24. Maybe show your list, mine is empty 🤷♂️
This guy has found the perfect balance of adapting to social media culture (attention span) and still creating interesting and sincere music. Definitely gives me hope. ☮️
This is our humanity, to be as we are here. You are seeing the world as you truly are. Know rhe words of God to man, "I am that I am" and that is who you are, and you are the tearing in the world, the physical habits and acts of life, mending these wounds.
Coming to see you in Dallas. Thank you for giving voice to the things you write and sing about. I’m not articulate in the way that you are, Jesse, but I sure relate to a lot of your songs.
The whole world is a ripe tomato brother.....dont throw it , just make a sammich!!!!! I dig everything you've done , and everything your doing brother , hang on in there , things are bound to get better......one way or another. Stitch it up , wrap it up , and keep on working. Let the love you have for it keep ya in check. Carry on friend , you got this!!! ron
I just gave my granddaughter a harmonica for Christmas 🎄. She absolutely loves it and continues to play it like a pro. It just came natural to her and she’s really good 👍🏻 at it too!! You play very well Jesse and your songs hit home 🏠 for a lot of us. Thank you 🙏🏻 for sharing your gifts and talents with all of us!! 💙
Listened to this probably 30-40 times since it came out, this such a good one Jesse probably one of my favorites you've ever written and it resonates on a lot of levels as usual! Keep changing the world man
I love how the lyrics are included in the description. Also for the instrumentally inclined, the video shows how it's played. If you're quick fingered and dedicated
What a perfect song, to be at sea at, to live in the tear of our soul, and to be like this, is to live joyfully, without God and as God. Working in our lives to bring about a heaven.
Jesus christ dude. How do you put words together like that? " You were always a poet, you just didnt know it,...the truth is a horn, we just gotta blow it..." Are you a figment of my imagination? Naw. I dont have that good of an imagination.😂 You truly give me heart to keep on. You do the same. And thank you thank you.
Lifes got a line and im gunna tow it, the truth is a horn and we all gotta blow it, theres a river of joy and im gunna row it, there a hole in my soul and im gunna sow it, moses stitch by stitch - just wow.
Babe wake up! Welles just posted another Hit!!
Babe: stop waking me up every 5 hours

Friendly edit suggestion. Replace “poses” with “possess.” Makes it less like calling him a poser.
Give him time. He just keeps improving
We’re so casually witnessing the beginning of a very famous artist, the beginning of him becoming more famous than he already is. Song after song is something you would hear on the radio. Something your grandpa or grandma would play. An old young man in a new world
Actually he's been making music for years.
Research.
Indeed he's been on his bluegrass redemption phase I love ot but I loved when he was the Rockstar druggie too
@@CensoredbyRUclips-1955 I know that. That’s why I said more famous than he already is. Read.

The quality and speed you put songs out with is genuinely mind blowing.
Agreed, and we are in no way complaining!
Probably just re doing them all to move them from tiktok before it goes away.
@@CajunGreenMan fluff off
using ai to write lyrics
@user-zn8uo67pd maybe, but AI sucks at hooks and groove vibes.
There's a hole in my soul, I'm gonna sow it... Baby.. stitch by stitch.
So dope.
Much love and respect into the future.
You are a life jacket helping us keep afloat in this big ole sea 🤎💚💙🩵
Well spoken
It seems that you have so much in you that you are bursting at the seams- and then that light just pours out everywhere.
Thanks man.
I keep seeing new songs and think ‘nobody can keep writing great songs this often’ but they’re all killer no filler straight from the heart, the true human experience unfiltered
So dam good, just when it seemed nobody was writing good stuff anymore. A superstar rises.
he is truly a brilliant gem, but plenty of folks are writing good stuff- do you need some recommendations? 🦦
They just keep coming. What a phenomenon to keep getting new songs on RUclips.
Jesse your more than a poet, we know that. Your prolific relevant writing you are a "wordsmith" with a message every citizen needs to hear. Sculptors sculpt, painters paint, & writers write with uncertain dark days ahead there will be more to write about. Thank you for posting.
I think Jesse converted me into a folk/country fan. Ive done next to nothing besides go through and listen to all his songs today 😂
same lmao
Jesse is my favorite musical discovery in a long time. Damn, he makes me feel like I know someone from the past. Lyricism like he sold his soul.
... same here
If John Prine, Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, and Leonard Cohen somehow had a love child...
The US truly needs a folk revival right about now. Thanks for doing it
So glad I get to see these performances that otherwise seem reserved for woodland creatures only
Amazing comment 😂❤🌲🐿🌲🦌
The best musician of my generation.
Agreed
Agree. He is something else.
Agreed. I'm 30.
agreed, I'm 34 , im gonna follow him for a long time, it's our dylen, the passion in this man would choke you up
That background is starting to be iconic.
More than an artist. A prophet.
Yeah I've come to believe that about a few musician's/lyricist. You find them like a rare gem/stone in various genres.
Jesse is just majestic. Speaker of truth. Love this man.
He’s courageous.
You're the musician that we didn't know we needed. Keep it up. You rock!
Yup you rate right up there with Bob Dylan 👍 you are on a roll 👍
Since I first stumbled onto your music, you just get better and better. Your the most talented artist I’ve heard the last 20 year, I listen to your music every single day. Usually with a new track you’ve got them coming out so quick 😂
Just found him a week ago and yes, still listening every day. He's amazing.🎉❤
Came across this guy last week and keep coming back to watch. Great music dude 👌 true soul
"There's a hole in my soul, I'm gonna sew it." perfect phrase ❤
The best!!!
Not much music these days gives me hope--except this guy.
When Billy Strings was brand new and unknown, *I KNEW* he was the real deal. *Same with Jesse.* It won't be long till he's gone BIG TIME. I just hope to phuk he doesn't let it go to his head. Ya know? If you read this man, stay simple. Stay a simple kind of man. Remain something you love and understand! Jesse stay a simple kind of man. Won't you do that for all of us, if you can.
Riffin off Skynyrd..
Thankyou for saying what I was gonna say.. ✨
Love the songs like this which aren't directly tied to contemporary news-worthy events.
I like how prolific Jesse is to make songs about issues in-the-moment, but songs like this are immediate anytime-classics.
This does speak directly to the moment, and this brief opportunity we all have to wake up before it’s too late. The globalists have a deadline.
Soooooo great to hear a great lyricist again. Feels like it’s been years since I heard someone like this. Absolutely loving all your stuff dude. We need a poet like you now
....one day we will pilgrim to these powerlines in the woods to honour a great artist....
Always a good day when we get a new tune. A lot of good days this year
Not the new Dylan. An entity of your own. Sheer brilliance. (80 yr old Dylan/Welles fan).
There's a hole in my soul, and I'm trying to learn to sew it. Thanks Mr. Welles
NEW AGE, POP, FOLK. DAMN I LOVE THIS KID! ;-)
Was feeling shit - this came through and made me smile. My name is Moses.
What a GIFT this is for our 2025 New Year... And what a BREATH OF FRESH AIR YOU ARE, Jesse!! God Bless.
Much like Dylan’s rise, I think Jesse’s organic popularity is a sign of things to come. Music is and has always been very cyclical, and we’ve had about 20 odd years of moguls, and super producers much like the 1930’s through the late 50’s.

I love this! You are a wellspring of poetry & melody. The way you create music is truly fascinating & inspiring. ✌️☺️🎶
What a great songsmith. The Dylan of a new generation. Thank you Jesse.
Oh man. You're light in a dark world. Please, for all our sakes, keep playing!
Thanks for the present Jesse...new years resolution...yeah, stitch by stitch!

The harmonics are as Awesome as the lyrics ~ your rocking it sew cool 😎😉💜🙏
A song a day keeps the seasonal depression at bay.
I really love this dude. Thanks again Jesse, Much love! You're doing great work.
There's a hole in my soul
I'm gonna sew it Stich by Stitch ❤
So much constant flow of so much greatness! You're greatly blessed with many gifts! Keep receiving and delivering every message, prophet!
Ahhhh...it's like a cool drink from a mountain stream Jesse❤🎉
Thank you Jesse! Another killer tune with great lyrics and perfect delivery. Hope to see you live sometime soon! Cheers‼️
A true artist in an untrue world
this so good jesse makes the best songs
This is our humanity, to be as we are here. You are seeing the world as you truly are. Know rhe words of God to man, "I am that I am" and that is who you are, and you are the tearing in the world, the physical habits and acts of life, mending these wounds.
You speak to a real psychology pain of the world of being human. That is Christ like to me.
Dude add this to Spotify it’s fire, really amazing stuff
I love your music, keep up the good work Jesse!
Coming to see you in Dallas. Thank you for giving voice to the things you write and sing about. I’m not articulate in the way that you are, Jesse, but I sure relate to a lot of your songs.
Jesse! I love your music so much! You are amazing! ❤
I so enjoyed listening to this latest song, Jesse. I could listen to you all day. ❤
Another great song!
Jesse, you hit me in the feels at just the right time. How you continue to do it, i'll never know. Thank you, sir.
It's mind-blowing but he's a prodigy.....or a few late 1960s old souls in this one man
I Iove them all but the soulful ones I love the best ❤
The Prine of our generation.
The irony of this song coming out the day I became addicted to crocheting
So good man I hope he stays like this. Music at it's pure form
my man is cookin. seriously cookin. we needed some protest song prophets, you are makin yourself heard!!!!!
Auggie's diggin' it the day after Christmas.... howlin' with the harp n makin' the chickens cluck n clatter
This one is immediately right up there at the top of your discography in my opinion. Love it man. Eagerly awaiting the next one 🫡🫡
“The truth is a horn and Im gonna blow it.” Brilliant!
The whole world is a ripe tomato brother.....dont throw it , just make a sammich!!!!! I dig everything you've done , and everything your doing brother , hang on in there , things are bound to get better......one way or another. Stitch it up , wrap it up , and keep on working.

Awesome, thanks for your tunes and a Happy New Year to you
I don't know why, but the line "the whole world's a boat, I'm gonna row it" in the context of this song makes me feel emotional
This one song worth the price of admission right there.
I love how the lyrics are included in the description. Also for the instrumentally inclined, the video shows how it's played. If you're quick fingered and dedicated

They say there is secret to song writing...well Jesse Welles has definitely found it
I believe in you. And so does She. 🌹
Your songs are like an instant old friend.
