Music Notes
Jesse Labelle
Since releasing his debut album, Perfect Accident, Jesse Labelle has been on tour with Faber Drive and the New Cities. He says that while hours at a time staring out the window might not seem like the most inspiring way to his spend time, the experience has brought him away from his everyday life and allowed him to have a clean slate.“I’m always writing so being out on the road you get to clear your head a little bit and start that creative process again," he says. "I’ve defiantly come up with a couple of ideas here and there."
Much of that time on the road has been spent thinking of his life back home, a topic often reflected in reflected in Labelle's intimate lyrics.
“Just being out here on the road and spending a lot of time in the back of a van, watching the road go by and sort of thinking about back home," he recounts, "it’s always good to have time to clear your head and thinking about writing.” vueweekly.com comments: powered by Disqus
