Raised on a buffalo ranch in northwest Kansas, Jess Klemm grew up surrounded by the wide-open plains and the sounds of Chris LeDoux on cassette. Summers were spent fixing fences with her siblings under the sweltering sun, always with music as a constant companion.

In 2014, Jess moved to Wyoming, trading the prairie for the mountains — a place that instantly felt like home. She began performing in 2016 at Cassie’s Supper Club in Cody and never looked back, spending over eight years sharing her music across the state.

Now based in Texas and pursuing music full time, Jess brings heartfelt lyrics, rich vocals, and Western roots to every stage she steps on.
