Jess KingJess King
Jess King's passion for music began at an early age. Beginning classical piano lessons at the age of four, Jess gradually developed a strong love for the instrument; meanwhile, her natural affinity and gift for singing grew as she did. At the age of thirteen, Jess King's love of writing found its way to music, when one afternoon she sat down at the piano and a song simply "flowed out" of her. Melodies and phrases had long been running throughout Jess' mind and heart; she now felt their purpose.

Jess completed her studies at Wellesley and Dartmouth Colleges, where she performed to great acclaim at campus venues and local bars. She then spent a year volunteering as a Music teacher at an elementary school in the Marshall Islands, a developing group of islands in the Pacific. This experience lives with her still; she has a true desire to help those in need. Jess departed the Marshalls in order to pursue her personal aspirations in music, hoping one day she will be able to contribute to their welfare on a grander scale. She has since taken her music to the global stage, performing at various locales in London, Hong Kong and parts of the Caribbean. Her global appeal is only natural, as her music is a pure testament of how the melding of different cultural sounds makes for the truest of songs. In Jess' music, one can hear the Spanish beat, the raw truth and hopeful yearning of a bluesy ballad, and the relentless energy of a rock piece. Her voice carries with it an unmistakable depth and sincerity, only strengthened by the honesty and emotion conveyed through her lyrics.

Jess King has been featured in Biography magazine's print and 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 and, 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 and MetroStars games, and is currently performing throughout NYC at venues including the Bitter End, Mo Pitkin's, Joe's Pub and Rockwood Music Hall. Her strong, faithful and 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) and written by The Daily Show's Jason Reich. Film is a new and exciting territory for Jess, presenting a fresh canvas for her artistic expression. Her natural gift for interpreting the shapes of both the heart and mind succeeds in resonating deeply truthful messages for these projects.
