Bio:

 The musical trek of Jesse and Noah Bellamy began
several years ago in central Florida. As members of
Elston Gunnn, they were part of a small group of
bands in the area who's sound leaned toward
Alternative Country or Roots Rock.
 
     “There were three or four bands in the area we
could play with, but for the most part Florida was full
of leftover hair bands and really bad rap-rock,” says
Noah.  While opening for most of the Alt Country and
Americana artists that came through at the time, Jesse
and Noah also extended their reach to the East Coast. 
“Thankfully, we got to play CBGB right before it closed.  
We went from there to South by Southwest in Austin.”  
Their exposure at the festival eventually led Jesse and
Noah, to focus their efforts in Texas.  
 
Leaving behind Elston Gunnn and now performing as a
duo under the moniker “Jesse and Noah,” the brothers
did radio tours and played live throughout Texas earning
their first chart success on the Texas Charts.    

In 2008 the duo was presented a gold record in Denmark
for songwriting contribution to Wenche Hartmann's album
Here I Am. Several European tours soon followed. 

Jesse and Noah eventually relocated to Nashville to 
develop their craft. After finding the 'Music Row' 
aesthetic to be restricting, the brothers made the 
decision to write and produce their own music. The 
result is “Driven Back,” an eclectic mix of Roots-Rock, 
Power-Pop, Country, and Americana. As accomplished 
multi-instrumentalists, they're responsible for the 
majority of the tracks on “Driven Back,” which was 
recorded completely in their home studio, just south of 
Music City.
 
 Watching their father, David Bellamy (Bellamy Brothers),
pen hit after hit, Jesse and Noah grew up with a musical
heritage that they’ve chosen to embrace and expand upon.  
Just as other classic “brother” groups (The Louvin 
Brothers, The Everly Brothers, The Kinks, The Allman 
Bros. Band, The Bee Gees, etc), forged their own unique 
sound and identities, Jesse and Noah also are pushing 
musical boundaries to create their own path.
