Jessie Baylin: Firesight

If you took a listen to Jessie Baylin‘s new record Firesight without glancing at the album cover, you’d probably guess she was older than her 24 years. Based in Los Angeles by way of New Jersey, Baylin has a voice that is comforting, but not defenseless. There is a noticeable fight in the folk/jazz singer’s tone. Working with an all-star cast of producers and songwriters, and featuring guest appearances by Hotel Cafe alumni Cary Brothers and Brett Dennen, Firesight is easy listening at its finest. Baylin has been featured on the forth-annual Hotel Cafe Tour, sharing the bill with other singer/songwriters such as Ingrid Michelson, Greg Laswell, and the aforementioned Brothers. Her album drops June 24th. You can listen to a stream of her single “See How I Run” here.
