Best known for his 1993 ballad "Jessie," Joshua Kadison began playing piano and writing songs when he was 12 years old. Influences on his songwriting included <a href="spotify:artist:6rrwIOOzyvn76SDbkxjIjS">Cole Porter</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0nQUbpmd7XAM7ep5Z6H4ww">Rodgers & Hart</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:1YuknfkSYTTbolRpwZBOv4">Gershwin</a>, although Kadison's melancholic brand of adult contemporary pop was just as indebted to <a href="spotify:artist:3PhoLpVuITZKcymswpck5b">Elton John</a>. After his mother's death, he left his Hollywood Hills home and resettled in Nashville, where he signed a contract with <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22SBK+Records%22">SBK Records</a>. His debut album, Painted Desert Serenade, was released in 1993 and went platinum within two years, largely driven by the Top Ten single "Jessie." The song was also a hit in Europe, where Kadison's subsequent albums found a more welcome audience than they did at home. ~ John Bush, Rovi
