054 - Jesse Parent (RETURNS)

Recently a guest on my friend Natasha's show (a much better host and interviewer), Jesse Parent returns to The Todd Donald Show to chat a bit about the finished release of his new album “Somedays, Tomorrows & Best Laid Plans”… AND to go off the rails and into outer space, with me. Jesse’s become a consummate, professional A F singer/songwriter, after years of playing with schlubs like me a decade ago, wherever we could get a spot, and years of searching for and ultimately finding his musical identity.

Jesse takes his craft and business as seriously as and with a dedication not unlike that of LL Cool J, who as some of you might not know, was a rapper in the 1980s. Much like LL Cool J, Jesse has taken his love of music and performing, and diversified, such as by: teaching, working at music shops and co-writing… all for the purpose of not wasting his gift/curse.
