Jake Hess III, born October 14, 1997, in Bastrop, Louisiana, grew up surrounded by music through his parents, Judy Martin Hess and Jake Hess Jr., who met while touring with Bill Gaither. His early exposure to life on the road sparked a deep love for music that shaped his future. As a teenager, Jake began leading worship at his uncle’s church in Buena Vista, Georgia, where he discovered his calling to Christian music.

As a member of Voices, he toured internationally and performed at venues such as Carnegie Hall and the Grand Ole Opry, with several of the group’s performances reaching millions online. In 2020, he moved to Nashville after signing with Red Street Records, co-writing two songs that reached #1 on Christian Radio. Since parting ways with the label in 2023, Jake has shifted his focus to Country music, pursuing a solo career as a singer-songwriter and continuing to make his mark in Nashville’s music scene.
