St. Louis’s WISEMARY Unleashes Fiery Single “Jesse James”
St. Louis rocksteady outfit WISEMARY is shaking off their classic rock cover days and forging a sound that’s undeniably their own. Their latest single, “Jesse James,” is a potent cocktail of raw energy, bluesy swagger, and an attitude that won’t back down.
This ain’t your typical breakup ballad. “Jesse James” throws a Molotov cocktail at the cliché of the scorned lover. Lead singer Zach Rehagen ignites the track with scorching vocals, embodying a woman who takes what she wants. The lyrics are a fiery retort to a jealous ex, with lines like “I knew I had you from the moment / We locked eyes across the stereotype” leaving no room for doubt.
Wisemary‘s rhythm section, anchored by bassist Ryan Litteken and drummer Andrew Martin, lays down a foundation that’s both gritty and danceable. Carson Kilo’s lead guitar work scorches with defiance, mirroring the protagonist’s feisty spirit. Evan Gay’s rhythm guitar weaves seamlessly, creating a sonic tapestry that’s both fierce and strangely alluring.
St. Louis has a rich history of musical rebellion, and WISEMARY channels that spirit perfectly in “Jesse James.” The song’s infectious energy and defiant lyrics are sure to resonate with anyone who’s ever unapologetically carved their own path. This is more than just a single; it’s a declaration of arrival for a band poised to make waves in the rock scene.
With their self-titled debut album on the horizon, WISEMARY is ready to take listeners on a journey through their own unique musical landscape. “Jesse James” is a powerful first taste, leaving audiences hungry for more.
