From the idea of ‘’make it your own‘’, singer/songwriter Jesse Couwenberg (1990) from Tilburg started making music, in which he has drawn inspiration from blues, soul, pop and rock, to express his love for music. The combination of these styles brings Jesse to alternative rock. Although Jesse grew up in a musical family, he did not turn to playing instruments and producing music until later in life. This has allowed Jesse to express his ideas about growing up, love, friendship, nature and the future. In a new series of singles, Jesse presents his music on the bigger stage for the first time. In April 2023, he kicked off with the release ‘The World In Smoke’. In late November 2024, his new single ‘Meet In The Middle’ will be released. Jesse is always looking for narrative lyrics and full arrangements when writing his songs. In doing so, he performs laid-back passages, alternating with driving solos and ‘driven’ vocals. Even at a young age, Jesse developed a broad taste in music. Artists who have influenced his current musical works are: The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Lenny Kravitz, Steve Miller Band, Jackson Browne and Bruce Hornsby. Having been inspired by many musical styles, his quest, to create in different genres, is still ongoing.
