Interview

Jessye DeSilva is prepping another album and is fundraising, community-style. Much like Adeem the Artist’s queer country barnraising (as they described it on a previous Rainbow Rodeo episode), Jessye is fundraising via Venmo, Ca$hApp, PayPal, and album preorders. After reading our interview, you’re gonna want to see that album made? Emo/punk/queer Americana? What are you waiting for! Give Jessye all your money here!
