I'm glad Kimmel understands that Jesse IS a voice that needs to be heard, especially right now. Fantastic second appearance on national television.

Can you have him play all week?
Love to see Jimmy interview him

I haven't been excited about an artist like this in a long long time. If you liked this you're going to love his YouTube channel. Jesse is the voice of our present moment

I haven't seen this guy before... When I clicked on the link to this song, I wasn't expecting the kind emotional reaction I would have after just the first 10 seconds

[MaximBordyug.]

If you're ever sad, just remember that the world is billions of years old, and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as Jesse Welles.

Could you imagine Jesse playing at the protest tomorrow in DC on the National Mall ?

[DonnyOsmosis]

Jesse is getting REALLY famous, really quick-like. He definitely deserves the respect/attention he is getting.

This guy just seems like a fully formed star. Not manufactured but the way they used to orrfect their craft and just be a face and a voice and a genre.
