About this act
Jesse Witney is a singer from Kingscliff, New South Wales.
Brazilian rhythm and jazz harmony run through Jesse Witney's songwriting, a Kingscliff-based artist working within the world-roots tradition. Jazzy chords and catchy melodies sit alongside those Brazilian elements, drawing on the eclectic rhythms and romantic vocal style of Musica Popular Brasileira, a movement that reached wider fame in the 1970s. It's a less common pairing than either style alone, giving the material a shape that doesn't sit inside one obvious genre.
