JESSE WELLES is finally bringing his unflinching, poetic and achingly human folk songs to Australian stages this January.
Hailing from the Ozarks of Arkansas, Welles has become a voice of truth in troubled times. A relentless troubadour, travelling and performing and writing songs in the tradition of Dylan, Guthrie and Prine, Welles has taken his music to every corner of North American and Europe. And now it’s Australia’s turn.
With a guitar in hand and words as sharp as a blade, Welles sings from the heartlands of America, addressing politics, society and matters of the heart through his raw songs and shows.
His performances – whether under the wide-open sky of his hometown, in miniature edits on his far-reaching online platforms, or in front of sold-out venues – leave a mark that lingers long after the last note.
After gathering a fanbase through millions of streams and earning critical acclaim from the likes of Rolling Stone and the New York Times, to touring with Greta Van Fleet, Highly Suspect, and Royal Blood, Jesse Welles finally steps onto Australian soil this summer with his Down Under The Powerlines tour.
Expect an evening of stories and songs, humour and hope from one of the most fearless songwriters of his generation.
