Jesse Harris is a singer/songwriter from New York City. In 2003 he won the Grammy Award for Song Of the Year for Norah Jones's rendition of 'Don't Know Why'. He wrote also four other songs for that album. His songs have been recorded by many other artists as well, including Willie Nelson, Bright Eyes, Feist, Madeleine  Peyroux, Lizz Wright and Pat Metheny.
