Album Notes

Hello Friends,

My name is Jessee Williams and I love to sing!

Growing up with 3 brothers and a little sister made it impossible to get too much attention for any length of time, so in my boyhood I learned quickly to entertain myself. I was blessed by God with the gift of hearing music and being able to harmonize with it. I picked up a guitar and harmonica and taught myself to play, and by the age of 12, I was writing, playing and singing my own music.

I was raised by a loving mother and a hardworking father. My father's business provided well for our family, but with that came frequent moves around the country that were requirements of his job. Each of my four years of high school were spent in a new school and in a different state. This made long term friendships hard to come by and painful when it came time to say goodbye. I lost myself in music; she was my friend that I could always rely on and there was never a need to say goodbye! I respected her and loved her, and do until this day.

I attended college on the west coast, and moved back east where I managed a small store. The only time I could devote to my music was in church on Sundays and prayer meetings during the week. These were the times I enjoyed the most and gave it my all. I even found myself writing gospel songs all the while working hard at my job.

I moved to Texas in the early 1990's and settled down on a small farm on the outskirts of the rural town of Canton. Finding time now for my music was difficult and was usually around a campfire or late in the evening. Time was pretty much taken up with farm affairs until after the loss of a son who battled for life and now lives it in higher places.

Through this battle, I learned something new about life and that is to "Live It"!

My album, "The Truck Stops Here" was recorded in Nashville, TN with some of the best musicians, and backup singers in Nashville, as well as one of the best engineers, and producers, in the business.

Where my music takes me is yet to be seen, but where I take my music is from my heart. I love it and I hope you do too!

Jessee
