Jesse “JT Jazz” Thompson To Release New Single “Cape Town Coast”

Jesse “JT Jazz” Thompson Joins Forces With Adam Hawley and Judah Sealy To Release “Cape Town Coast”

Jesse “JTJazz” Thompson, multi-talented composer, pianist and keyboardist, born in “The Land Of Funk” (Dayton, Ohio) attributes his humble beginnings in music to being captivated by a family of musicians: a father who was a professional drummer, Thompson’s mother–a church organist/pianist and his brother Marvyn Wheatley (who recorded and played with Parliament and Slave). Industry influences were soul/funk legends The Ohio Players, Lakeside, and Zapp featuring Roger Troutman.

Driven to continue the legacy of great musicianship, Thompson became a member of the popular Columbus-based R&B/Jazz group NexLevel for several years. The collectives released two albums, a string of singles and shared stages with countless notable artists.

In 2021, the impact of the global pandemic deeply inspired Thompson to write and release the uptempo, feel-good melody, “Weekend Groove,” ft Althea Rene which catapulted the musician into solo-artist status. The well-received track has garnered close to 200K Spotify streams to date.

Thompson would go on to release a 7-song EP, in 2022, intriguingly titled The Inauguration of JTJazz (Jesse Thompson-the man behind the keys) marking the commencement of a new pathway, and birthing several singles from the project.

With 2024 being a ‘leap’ year which some say is the year of inspiration, Thompson has resolutely followed his passion by keeping his legacy in music alive by teaming with heavyweight Producer/Guitarist Adam Hawley and collaborating with highly sought after Saxophonist Judah Sealy to create an alluring mid-tempo track entitled, “Late Nite,” which dropped worldwide 4/1/2024.

On the cusp of higher heights in his musical career, Thompson continues his collaborative efforts with Producer Adam Hawley, penning writing contributions from previously featured Billboard Charting Saxophonist Judah Sealy.

Embodied with an infectious rhythmic flow, Thompson’s next mid-tempo muse is coming soon to a digital platform near you! “Cape Town Coast” is a melody that provides energy and passion as a gateway to an uplifting experience and movement with an African groove vibe. This highly anticipated release is certain to please!

“Cape Town Coast” Available worldwide, Friday, August 30, 2024.
