Album release party in Spokane Valley

A veteran of the Inland Northwest Country Music Association is releasing a new album and celebrating with a party.

Jesse Lee Quandt is a native of the Pacific Northwest who learned to sing and play the guitar and drums when he was a child. He cites his inspirations as coming from a wide range of music. These include artists like Hank Williams, Jr., as well as genres that include classic rock, classic country, outlaw country, the blues, and jazz. He was involved with music throughout his school years.

In 2003, he put his career on hold and joined the Army, where he served honorably for ten years. Even while he was serving, he continued songwriting and, upon discharge, he returned to music full time, writing, singing, recording, and performing as a country music artist. He released his album “Back in Town” in 2016. A review says:

“Every time Jesse comes to play . . . he brings it and we have a fun night.”


Hunter Stiles will open for Quandt. Stiles is also a Washington State native who has been playing guitar for half his life, and recently added his vocal talents to the mix. Like Quandt, he is known as a country artist.

Jesse Quandt will be at the Black Diamond on East Sprague Avenue in Spokane Valley on December 9 to release “Gotta Give In,” the new album. Organizers can use poster printing to create exciting advertising for events like these.
