The Jessie Kay Band recently headed to Big Blue North Recording Studio in Utica, NY, to record their newest single, “That Damn Girl”, written by acclaimed songwriter Rich Massuci.
Joining Jessie Kay on this milestone session were her bandmates — Cal LaClair on guitar, Mark Circelli on bass, and Brandon Baldwin on drums — along with renowned fiddle and violin player Liz Ingersoll, adding her signature touch to the track. They are also joined by Jayden Cooley to help round out duties on guitar.
This session marks a significant first for the band: it’s the first time the Jessie Kay Band has recorded together as a full group. The recording was overseen by Big Blue North owner Jeff Aderman, who handled the mixing duties, ensuring every note and nuance was captured perfectly.
“Jeff and his wife Pam are absolutely fantastic to work with,” said lead vocalist Jessie Kay. Guitarist Cal LaClair added, “The studio is absolutely state-of-the-art, and it’s always amazing working with Jeff and Pam. They really know their stuff.”
Jessie also praised the song itself: “Rich really hit it out of the park writing this song. I can’t wait to hear the finished product!”
Fans can look forward to “That Damn Girl” hitting all major streaming platforms, including Spotify and Apple Music, later this month. With the Jessie Kay Band finally bringing their full lineup into the studio, this release promises to showcase the energy, passion, and musical chemistry that is making a buzz in the Upstate New York country scene.
Stay tuned — this is one recording you won’t want to miss!
