Jesse Daniel has been a well-respected name among traditional country music fans for many years. Known for his boundless work ethic, energetic live shows and true-to-life songwriting, he has earned his place among the big names in today's music industry.

The California-born artist is paving the way for a new wave of traditional artists, taking his brand of country music to stages around the world. With three studio albums and a recently released live album, he continues to challenge the genre's big names with his level of creativity. There are a lot of people making traditional country music in the modern era, but no one does it quite like Daniel; his sound is completely unique, while being rooted in the tradition of his Bakersfield heroes like Merle Haggard and Buck Owens. His new single, "Workin' Hard (Day and Night)", is a tribute to Merle and is being used as the theme song for Dusty Slay's new comedy special "Workin' Man" on Netflix. Jesse and the band have an extensive tour planned in the US and Europe in 2025, and there are no limits to where the new year can take him.

But one thing's for sure - we're taking him to Norway and Norsk Countrytreff!
