​Jesse Daniel  (from the album Rollin’ On available on Die True Records)
The team behind Jesse Daniel chose a quote from Shooter Jennings to lead the press pitch for the musician. ‘Jesse Daniel is badass’ was the simple statement from Shooter on his radio show, the brevity of the message blowing the words and music of the California Country singer to billboard size. Rollin’ On supports the claim admirably, the guitar chicken-picking its way into the album on “Tar Snakes” as the opening cut sings a sad song for the open road. Jesse Daniel strums a campfire introduction with “Son of the San Lorenzo” as the Rollin’ On title track pounds out honky tonk Rock’n’Roll, shares the story of “Mayo and the Mustard”, and deals out whiskey wisdom for “It’s Only Money, Honey”.
 
The California Country cred that backs the tunes on Rollin’ On pays homage to Central Valley originators Buck Owens and Merle Haggard. The stories on the album mirror-images of the California honky-tonk farmers and truck drivers that call the farm belt of the Golden State their home. The jukebox drops its needle on advice in “If You Ain’t Happy Now (You Never Will Be)” and picks up the pace to stir up sawdust with “Bringin’ Home the Roses”. Jesse Daniel deserves the badass crown, his songs are true believers, cherished treasures much like the trophy that “Champion” carries in his Tex Mex tune while Rollin’ On sways on the slowly-churned rhythms of “St. Claire’s Retreat” and puts a single spotlight on the solo guitar man performing in “Old at Heart”.
