Jesse Winchester

Jesse Winchester was a singer-songwriter from Shreveport, Louisiana who started releasing music in 1970. His first album included 'I Don't Think You Love Me Anymore,' a song that became his best-known work with its quiet, resigned look at a relationship ending. He wrote in a folk style that felt personal and direct, without much ornamentation.

He spent many years living in Canada after leaving the United States during the Vietnam War era. While there, he kept making records like 'Third Down, 110 to Go' and 'Roulette.' Songs such as 'Wander My Way Home' and 'Black Dog' showed his knack for writing about displacement and small moments with a gentle touch.

Winchester worked with musicians like Robbie Robertson and Emmylou Harris at different points. He kept recording into the 1990s and 2000s, putting out albums like 'Thunderbird Road.' He died in 2014.
