JESSE BLAKE RUNDLE

Welcome to my website.

I write songs, score films, and generally just do art stuff. In 2023 I released my second album, Next Town’s Trees and the follow up EP Artifacts of Water. This year I’m writing and recording the next album, due out in 2025.

I compose for film and write original film scores. Recent projects include the feature film Stockton to Table Rock, produced by Lower Gentry Studios. It was featured at Filmfort and Wyoming International Film Fest in 2024. My second feature film score is completed and will hit festivals in 2025 - it’s an as-yet-to-be-announced film in partnership with Boise Contemporary Theatre.

In addition to my songwriting, I run a studio on the Boise Bench called Mixed Metaphor Recording where I produce and engineer for songwriters and bands. Get in touch if you’d like to chat about music, composition, film scoring, poetry, or anything else.

Stockton to Table Rock is a feature film created by Lower Gentry Studios. Original score by Jesse Blake Rundle.

Artifacts of Water EP The new EP of six songs, released by Doe Records.

There’s a slice of majesty in ‘Fire’ — a window into the world of a Boise trabadour and the opening song on ‘Next’s Town Trees’. Yep, it is that good and it may just be the start of your love affair for this brilliant artist.
— MP3 Hugger

Next Town’s Trees is an 8 track album by Boise indie-folk musician, Jesse Blake Rundle, produced with bandmate and engineer, Nate Agenbroad.

“I wrote these songs during a time of immense change in my life: I was finally leaving the church, uncovering my sexuality, starting my first relationship with a man, figuring out joy in sobriety, and settling into my life as a musician,” he says. Jesse explores themes of modern identity and self discovery with a poet’s eye for detail. His acute observations are capable of catharsis and comfort during dark times.
