Nashville-based singer-songwriter Jess Jocoy releases her highly anticipated third album ‘Cul-de-Sac Kid,’ out now, solidifying her place as one of country music’s most evocative voices. Known for crafting introspective songs that live between heartache and hope, Jocoy’s 11-track collection blends cinematic storytelling with folk-rooted honesty. With her signature “cul-de-sac country” sound, Jocoy fuses Pacific Northwest soul with Southern twang, creating an intimate yet expansive soundscape that’s uniquely her own.
Anchored by the heartfelt title track “Cul-de-Sac Kid” and the striking single “You Sure Showed Me,” the album reflects Jocoy’s evolution both as an artist and a person. “Cul-de-Sac Kid feels like a door opening,” she shares. “I see what came before as memories rather than ghosts, and I look ahead to what’s to come as a hopeful light ready to break through.” Praised by outlets including American Songwriter, No Depression, and Taste of Country, Jocoy’s new release captures her fearless authenticity — blending melancholy, strength, and grace in equal measure. As she takes the stage at Nashville’s iconic Bluebird Cafe to celebrate its release, ‘Cul-de-Sac Kid’ stands as a heartfelt reminder that country music belongs to everyone, no matter where they come from.
