Austin Spotlight: Jess Williamson
Just so the world of Austin musicians doesn’t hate us, we’re not just into the rock n’ roll stylings of our fair city. Personally, I love all sorts of different stuff, but right now I’m really enjoying the music of Austin’s own Jess Williamson. I love her ornate style of finger-picking the banjo, and her unique control of her pipes. It’s a bit odd, but in that endearing sort of way that makes the boys (and girls) swoon. She’s set to release her new record, Native State, on January 28th via Brutal Honest, and if it’s all this carefully orchestrated, then it’ll definitely catch the ears of those in Austin, and hopefully beyond.
