After a car accident, tornado, cancer, and a violent shooting which left Jesse wounded, his story of finding God has taken his life’s path in a new direction, which can be reflected and heard in his music.
Born February 12, 1982 in Toronto, Ontario, Labelle first learned the guitar in his pre-teens, and played in a number of rock bands throughout high school.
[4] None of these collaborations made it onto any of Dobson's studio albums, however this experience did bring Labelle into contact with songwriter/producer Jay Levine and ultimately led to a development deal with Arista Records.
They released their self-titled debut album the same year with the lead single, "Busted" followed by "Let's Play" which both gained popularity on YTV's Hitlist and local FM radio stations.
Jesse Labelle was a member of the group alongside Gary Laranja, Joe Abbruscatto, Mark Ghezzo and Darryl Snider.
[9] In July 2014, Jesse joined Keith Urban on Canadian dates of his Raise 'Em Up Tour including the memorable performance at the Scotiabank Saddledome during the Calgary Stampede.
