Come see Jesse Ray Smith, Cassie B and Twilight Highway perform Thursday, Sept. 10 7:30 p.m. (Doors: 7 p.m.) Box Office: 858-481-8140 Boxoffice@bellyup.com | FAQ Jesse grew up blue-collar in Northern California, the son of parents who owned a family appliance business, and his sound carries that same lived-in, road-worn quality, shaped as much by California surf and coastal sailing as by the Americana tradition he's building on.
