Well-known community volunteer, U.S. Army veteran, songwriter and entertainment entrepreneur Thomas B. Vaughn is always on the lookout for new musical talent. When he recently learned about Jesi & Jay, a dynamic new duo of singer/songwriters who met while living in Los Angeles he was immediately taken by their talent and personalities.The pair put together a successful tour across the Southern and Midwestern United States, eventually making their way to Nashville. The duo has recorded a CD titled “Tethered,” filled with both ballads and up-tempo tunes Vaughn feels is sure to please the public.Jessica Erin and Jay Denton decided they loved music early on in their lives, and never looked back.“I started playing guitar and writing songs when I was probably around 10,” Jay said.
