Singer/songwriter Jessie Kilguss released her 4th album, The Fastness, in June 2018. In 2015, she sang harmony and played the harmonium with Freddie Stevenson, opening for the Waterboys on the European leg of their Modern Blues tour. Also in 2015, she played a featured show at the Sundance Film Festival.
Kilguss is a former actress who made the switch to songwriting after performing with one of her musical heroes, Marianne Faithfull, in London and Sydney in The Black Rider, a musical written by Tom Waits and William Burroughs, directed by Robert Wilson. She also acted in the film adaptation of The Crucible, starring Daniel Day Lewis and Winona Ryder.
She’s a frequent contributor and occasional co-producer of the Bushwick Book Club, a monthly literature-inspired performance series.
In addition to her own music, Jessie is also the Development Director at Musicambia, an organization that brings music learning and ensemble performance to prisons throughout the United States.
