I was born on April 9, 1987 in New York City, New York to Ginger and Scot McCartney. I have one brother, Timothy ("Timmy") Glover Mark McCartney (b. 1996) and one Sister, Lea Joyce McCartney (b. 1991).
I enjoyed acting since a very early age and in 1994, at age seven I was in a national tour of The King and I and also had some other acting roles on and off Broadway (Oliver, A Christmas Carol, Annie Get Your Gun).
My other passion is music and my first group, the Sugar Beats, was nominated for a Grammy award for our self titled album Sugar Beats.
In 1998, I received my big break in television as Adam Chandler, Jr. on the daytime soap All My Children. I appeared on the show until 2001. During my tenure on the show I won the 2001 Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a Daytime TV Series - Young Actor and the 2001 Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a TV Drama Series - Supporting Young Actor. I was also nominated for the 2000 Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a Soap Opera - Young Actor, 2001 Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Child Actor, and the 2001 and 2002 Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series.]
In 1999, I joined the group Dream Street. our album went gold and we even toured with Britney Spears in 2001. The band split in 2002 due to legal issues with the producers.
I never turned my back on acting and appeared in a movie in 2001 (The Pirates of Central Park) and a made for TV movie in 2002 (The Strange Legacy of Cameron Cruz).
In 2003, I hooked up with Sugar Beats producer Sherry Kondor and formed a new production company, Jump Ahead Productions. We then went to work on Jesse's solo EP JMac which contained three songs, "Beautiful Soul," "Dont You" and "Why Don't You Kiss Her." The EP was released in July 2003 followed by a short tour of Me & my band [band members were: Dillon Konder (lead guitar), Pete Chema (bass guitar), Katie Spencer (keyboards), Sharisse Francisco (background vocals) and Karina LaGravinesse (background vocals). The album and tour were a huge sucess.
In 2004, I released his album Beautiful Soul and it went platinum by February of the following year.
Also in 2004, I turned back to acting and received the role of Brandin Westerly on the popular television series Summerland. I have returned for the 2005 season as well.
Besides the acting and singing, I am also a student.
Sadly broke up with my girlfriend Katie Cassidy in February of 2005 [Note: Katie is the daughter of actor/singer David Cassidy].
In 2005 I was on the Beautiful Soul tour which is making its way across the country.
In September 2006, I released my sophomore album release, Right Where You Want Me which went platinum . My third album, Departure is expected to be released on May 20.
My favorite music artists include Craig David, Linkin Park, James Taylor and the Beatles .My favorite flavor of ice cream is chocolate and My favorite food is sushi .
