Jan. 31, 2012 - Hi Friends, Today Leonard Cohen releases "Old Ideas", his first studio album since 2004. In celebration of this, I have uploaded a new video of me performing Cohen's classic "Famous Blue Raincoat" from my concert on January 7th. If you'd like to hear the original, I encourage you to pick up Cohen's 1971 album, "Songs of Love and Hate".
My version can be heard at these two links.

Jan. 22, 2012 - Hi Friends, Being that's it's Sunday morning, I've uploaded a youtube video of my performance of Kris Kristofferson's "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", from my concert on January 7th, 2012. I hope you enjoy it. I know it's not anywhere near as good as the original. jessethomasbrown.com/video or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWXGoR9O_H8
Nov. 28, 2011 - Well Friends, it's that time of year again, which means it's time for me to dust off my festive if somewhat inappropriate holiday song "Merry Christmas Jameson's Irish Whiskey." From now until the end of December, the song can be downloaded for free as an MP3 in the
Free Downloads section of the website. It can also be played at this youtube link.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGvcTdrnllI&feature=feedu It's probably only right that I warn you first that there is Adult content in the song. I hope you enjoy. Happy Holidays All.

It was filmed this past August at a party I played at, and it can be viewed in the Video section of the website or at this Youtube link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZrOezMu-PU The song will be released on my upcoming album.
