'"There's
a real power & elegance in the way she conveys a song," observes
a fan. Jess King's work weaves words & notes together to say what
can't be expressed by either alone. Her music finds its way through jazz,
rhythm & blues, rock, pop, & soars to a place of its own. It tells
tales of love found, lost, & found again; of dreams & life experiences.
Above all, Jess' songs reveal a sensitive, poised, & caring artist
& person, with whom listeners can, & care to, relate.
Jess King has been featured in Biography magazine's print & television
ad campaign (on A&E) as an up-and-coming artist; she was also selected
to be a part of VH1's "Rock and Roll Mystery Tour". While pursuing
music, Jess is also devoted to supporting various humanitarian causes,
through performing at various nonprofit events &, most recently, initiating
a book drive to donate educational resources to children in the Marshall
Islands. Jess may be seen performing the Star Spangled Banner
at New York Mets & MetroStars games, & is currently performing
throughout NYC at venues including the Bitter End, Mo Pitkin's, Joe's
Pub and Rockwood Music Hall. Her strong, faithful & growing following
is eager to support this beautiful artist with a deep sense of purpose.
Recently, Jess has begun to compose for various film projects, including
an up-and-coming feature film directed by Sebastian Doggart (of Emmy-winning
Project Runway) & written by The Daily Show's Jason Reich.
Film is a new & exciting territory for Jess, presenting a fresh canvas
for her artistic expression. Her natural gift for interpreting the shapes
of both the heart & mind succeeds in resonating deeply truthful messages
for these projects.
