Sunday sessions @ The Hub On Martin featuring- JESE LAWRENCE

Jese Lawrence is a British Columbia–based artist writing progressive country and Americana shaped by small-town life and the responsibility that comes with it. His songs draw from years spent working construction, serving in the military, and fighting wildfires — experiences that taught him the value of patience, discipline, and showing up even when it’s uncomfortable.

Rather than chasing trends, Jese focuses on songs that feel steady and intentional. His writing centers on family, mistakes, work, and the quiet pressure of trying to do better than you did before. There’s grit in the stories, but also restraint — an understanding that not everything needs to be shouted to be felt.

Whether performing solo or with his band, Jese brings a live show that’s direct and unforced, built around strong songwriting and space for the music to breathe. It’s progressive country for listeners who care more about meaning than image, and who recognize themselves somewhere in the songs.
