Weeks continues to prove that he is among Canada's elite songwriters. After winning this years Radiostar National Songwriting Competition, Weeks released his debut album "Somewhere In The Distance" to excellent reviews. Toronto Star gave 3/4 stars and TorontoNew24 identified Jesse as one of Canada's powerful new songwriters.
Jesse's first single, the albums title track, received significant radio, satellite & Galaxie airplay. The song was also embraced by the Christian community, reaching #18 on the Canadian Christian Radio Chart alongside Switchfoot and Jars Of Clay.
"Answers" was another song of Jesse's which received preferential attention. After being featured on CTV in association with the series finale of the hit TV show "LOST", the music video has been remade into a vivid and haunting dedication to members of the Canadian Forces and their families. "Answers" was also licensed to the CBC for a new show entitled "Village On A Diet".
Jesse has been performing in and around Toronto this year as well as traveling to Los Angeles, Hong Kong, and Tokyo to promote his music.
Jesse is currently writing with Hawksley Workman and preparing to record some new material with Bill Bell (Justin Nozuka).
