Welcome to September! Welcome to the Fall!

My name is Maryjessie, a neo-soul low-fi artist based in L.A. I’m here to introduce you to my debut EP, “Welcome to September." This EP is centered around a feeling of beginnings as well as of nostalgia. A combination of my reflections on the past, my love for the present and my hopes for the future. 

Alas, the world of music!  Creation is WONDERFUL.  Advertisement and hosting is a pain in patootie!  In 2018, I took it upon myself to join the "distributing-via-paying-a-distributor-to-distribute-beautiful-music," world that is mostly inhabited by, "distributing-via-paying-a-distributor-to-distribute-YUCK," but didn't know the latter would be my cue a year later to STOP paying for distribution.  My music is beautiful and I refuse to pay for it to be lost in a sea of trash.  Upon stopping payments to my distributor after one full year of distribution, i found my mus

Light first dawned on Jamie Alimorad's prodigal artistry in Boston's underground music circuit, while attending Northeastern University. From those humble beginnings, Alimorad dedicated himself to honing his craft as a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. His time at Northeastern proved invaluable, culminating in a Bachelor of Science in Music Technology, and a blossoming career.

I was one of the founding members of the Pittsburgh-based band Sandoz which was signed to the New York label Relix Records and produced three albums. I have just released an unsigned solo album, Out from Nowhere. The ten original songs run the gamut from folk rock to country swing and spoken word jazz and feature some of the city’s finest musicians on sax, flute, violin, pedal steel, piano, and guitar.
