Jesse Malin

JESSE MALIN is a “gritty troubadour of the streets” (Rolling Stone) who tours internationally and collaborates with artists like Bruce Springsteen, Green Day, Bob Weir from the Grateful Dead, and Lucinda Williams. Malin went from playing CBGB at age thirteen to Madison Square Garden in his early twenties; from crashing the stage with his friends during Fear’s infamous Saturday Night Live performance to playing his own songs on The Tonight Show and CBS Saturday Morning. His body of work has garnered praise from Rolling Stone, Uncut, Paste, American Songwriter, Spin, the Times (UK), Classic Rock Magazine, No Depression, Pitchfork, Brooklyn Vegan, and many more. His autobiographical play, Jesse Malin’s Silver Manhattan, debuted at the Gramercy Theatre in 2025. His latest work is Almost grown.
