2002年,Jesse Harris為Norah Jones譜寫的『Come Away With Me』(Jess也是Norah Jones的吉他手),一口氣囊括了8座葛萊美獎,終于讓他榮登2003年度風(fēng)云人物之一。出生紐約藝術(shù)世家的Jesse Harris與他的樂團Ferdinandos曾常年在紐約的一個名叫“起居室”的俱樂部里演出,靠微薄的出場費和小費生活。成名后,Jesse Harris被環(huán)球看中,于2003年發(fā)行了他個人在主流廠牌Blue Thumb唱片旗下的首張專輯『奧秘的太陽《The Secret Sun》』。簡單唯美的編曲,風(fēng)格多樣,涵蓋了民謠,流行與搖滾,加上Norah Jones、Chris Brown與Roberto Rodriguez等多位好手友情跨刀,理所當(dāng)然的成為一張不可多得的杰作。
Jesse Harris first came into the public's eye as a guitarist and songwriter on Norah Jones' 2002 Grammy-winning album Come Away with Me, but his musical career dates back well before his collaborations with Miss Jones. A native New Yorker, Harris grew up studying classical piano and teaching himself guitar, focusing on the songwriting end first, with the actual musicianship coming second. Club dates in his late teens led to a deal with EMI and a 1995 album recorded with vocalist Rebecca Martin under the group name Once Blue. Harris' next project was the looser and more organic Ferdinandos (with Tony Scherr on guitar, Tim Luntzel on bass, and Kenny Wollesen on drums), who released a series of self-produced CDs and developed a following at the East Village club the Living Room. His work in clubs led to his working relationship with Jones and a major part in crafting her Blue Note debut. The album's commercial success helped to bring Harris' songwriting abilities to the music community's attention and led to his collaborations with other contemporary artists as well as a label deal for the Ferdinandos. The group's major-label debut on Verve's Blue Thumb Records imprint was warmly received upon its release in the spring of 2003. Since that time, Harris has released a handful of albums including Secret Sun in 2003, While the Music Lasts in 2004, Mineral in 2006, and Feel in 2007.
