Rusticalia is the solo recording project of Jesse Osmun, who hopes to one day play his songs live when he settles down. Jesse started playing in 1998, but only recently decided to get serious about writing and recording songs. He lives in northern Vermont and draws inspiration from life, literature, and spirituality to create simple but elegant tunes.
