And With Tons in Store for the Coming Year, He’ll Make TV Debuts on “Rick’s Rising Stars” and “Live It Up!”
Merrick, NY (December, 2016) — Having discovered a knack for music at the tender age of 7, NY Singer/Songwriter and Producer Jesse Eplan has grown leaps and bounds as an Artist in recent years. From learning how to play multiple instruments from drums to bass, guitar, keyboards, and discovering his immaculate voice playing in local bands throughout Long Island- the young star is shining once again with his brand new solo Debut Single “Dreams”. He is also currently working with Don Chaffin at DCity Studios in Huntington Village for the corresponding video. And as that star continues to rise, you can catch him performing at Revolution Bar & Music Hall Wednesday, January 11th for a LIVE TV TAPING of My Long Island TV’s Rick’s Rising Stars (which airs on Verizon FiOS1) and as a guest on Live It Up! with Donna Drake Monday, February 6th!
Jesse Eplan’s music consists of genres anywhere from Hip-Hop to Pop and R&B. Being able to blend them in a unique way and make it his own has come from years of immersing himself in music. Having first heard Led Zeppelin, ACDC, The Beatles and many of the world’s top music revolutionaries- this influenced him to start playing any instrument he could get his hands on, and he later began performing in bands as a lead singer, drummer and lead guitar player. Playing throughout Long Island and Manhattan in various gigs and charity events which raised thousands of dollars helping to fight crohns disease, colitis, and breast Cancer, he was able to cut his teeth as a live musician.
As Eplan continued to follow his passion, he discovered a talent which few people had….perfect pitch. Having developed this from his guitar and piano playing, he is able to hear different notes and to identify them precisely in both pitch and key, even in natural sounds from a squeaking door to a cough or sneeze! This ultimately helped him immensely with his next stage of music: writing, producing and recording.
Having purchased Logic X Pro, he was able to learn the digital audio workstation and music production software with ease, teaching himself every facet of the program and figuring out how to make beats to record his own vocal tracks over.
With “Dreams”, not only is his production knowledge easily visible–with a smooth yet soulful Pop/R&B vibe set to a hallucinatory backbeat–but his range and penetrating voice immediately comes to the forefront. With a beat and R&B stylings that wouldn’t be out of place in an Usher, Justin Timberlake or even Drake song, Eplan croons “I swear to God, success is right at my fingertips // And they be watchin’ me so I don’t pull out any tricks”. But with such a tremendous talent, he seems to be pulling out all the tricks in this hot new track.
As Jesse Eplan continues to thrive by making songs and collaborating with new and like-minded artists, his music is sure to speak volumes as it inspires others as much as it does himself. For your chance to catch catch him performing, he’ll be at Revolution Bar & Music Hall Wednesday, January 11th for a LIVE TV TAPING of My Long Island TV’s Rick’s Rising Stars (which airs on Verizon FiOS1), and a guest on Live It Up! with Donna Drake Monday, February 6th!
