Jesse Will - Mama Say

Jesse Will is an unsigned singer-songwriter from Aukland, New Zealand and describes his style as indie-folk, folk, blues and acoustic.  One of his latest songs Mama Say can be found here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=jVntB-93UM4  

Says Jesse on his Facebook page "I can't express how excited I am to share this with you all. It's a brand new song, my first music video, and a ridiculous amount of hard work and help from many talented friends went into producing & recording it, and I'm so eternally grateful."

The song itself is part of an ep released on 1st March called Hold Your Cards.  Last year he was named Roundhead Studios' Songwriter of the year and yesterday he set off to Dublin and from there he will head to London with plans to secure a record deal.  He realises it's a risk to choose music as a career and agrees that anyone who does so must be a little crazy.  With no guarantee of any kind of financial stability, he says the good thing about the folk scene is that it's really accessible.  "Everyone's really friendly and they're keen to hear fresh stuff.  You're not going to jeopardise anything because it's just little old you with your guitar."
