Jess Williamson

Jess Williamson is a songwriter from Austin, Texas. Her first release was the 2014 EP 'As The Birds Are,' which introduced her soulful vocals and introspective writing. She followed it with the 2016 album 'Heart Song' and the 2020 album 'Cosmic Cash,' which leaned into more psychedelic and experimental folk territory.

Her songs like 'Blood Song' and 'Devil's Girl' often explore themes of love and loss with a raw, vulnerable quality. In 2018, she was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune condition, and she has since used her music to process that experience.

She sometimes performs with other musicians, including bassist Zachariah Hickman, drummer Casey Toll, and guitarist Jacob Mann. Her work draws from folk traditions but isn't bound by them, creating a sound that feels both intimate and expansive.
