Bramble and Rye is a blues-infused folk duo based in Bozeman, MT. Bramble and Rye weave folk, country, rock and blues into their tunes, tipping their hats to songwriting legends like Gillian Welch, Neil Young and Bonnie Raitt while taking inspiration from new Americana artists like Jason Isbell and Ryan Bingham. Both songwriters, Jesscy Dean and Jeff Miesbauer met in the fall of 2014 and have been sharing and writing songs together ever since. They write from the parts of themselves that are used but not used up, and are inspired by things that are old and true, like rusty tools or tempered love. Jesscy is a Bozeman, MT native and has been filling the wide-open West with her powerful voice since birth. She channels her wild roots with every breath. Jeff comes from the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in South Carolina, where he learned to hear voices in falling water...and they always told him to play more guitar.
