Jessye DeSilva Biography
Jessye DeSilva is a classically trained vocalist and a voice teacher for musical theater students at the Boston Conservatory at Berklee College of Music. Renovations follows their ‘70s-rock-influenced 2022 release Landscapes, which earned them a nomination for Americana Artist of the Year at the 2022 Boston Music Awards. Their ability to seamlessly blend theatrical pop elements with the traditions of folk and roots music prompted No Depression to declare “Comparisons to Elton John and Brandi Carlile are easy — DeSilva clearly takes a page from these idols, anchoring their songs in pop melody juggernauts, gauzy textures, and vocal bravado.” American Songwriter has said their “catalog doesn’t skimp on razor-sharp lyrics, paired frequently with an almost ethereal vocal,” and recently Nashville Scene named them a 2023 Artist To Watch, saying “DeSilva could inject new life into a genre that could definitely use a little more pretzel logic.”
