Along with his brother, Jim & Jesse were a harmony and strings powerhouse. Attempting to play what he heard, Jesse developed the McReynolds or crosspicking style, and created a new driving force in bluegrass music.

Jesse was a lifelong musician and master mandolin player, a Veteran of the Korean War and a pioneer of Television. We are sad to hear the loss of such a legendary Mandolin Man but rejoice for music he has left us.
