About this Event
For Transgender Awareness Month this November, Jessye DeSilva and her band will release the new single “Jackals,” on all streaming platforms. Born of righteous rage and roaring electric guitars, “Jackals” is a primal scream directed at TERFS and all those who would throw Trans people under the proverbial bus for their own comfort or political expediency.Boston-based singer-songwriter Jessye DeSilva has been releasing music and touring nationally since 2019, earning praise from No Depression, Rolling Stone, and The Boot. Known for blending Americana roots with expansive, genre-defying songwriting, she has shared stages with Lisa Loeb, Adeem the Artist, and Brian Dunne, performed at AmericanaFest, and collaborated with artists including Jake Blount and Butch Walker.
No Depression says “Comparisons to Elton John and Brandi Carlile are easy — DeSilva clearly takes a page from these idols, anchoring songs in pop melody juggernauts, gauzy textures, and vocal bravado.” Nashville Scene named her a 2023 Artist To Watch, saying “DeSilva could inject new life into a genre that could definitely use a little more pretzel logic.”
