About Me

"I AM A CAMERA" NOW AVAILABE ON ITUNES CLICK THE LINK BELOW This is a story full of half-truths.... Jessica is a slightly agoraphobic, freak of nature from another time, and place. Began her musical journey in her Grandmother's living room, dancing around wearing scarves and climbing on furniture pretending to be Maria VonTrapp and other colorful musical heroines. She spent over 3 years working with and performing with a theatre group that donated all of it's proceeds to BC/EFA (Broadway Cares-Equity Fights AIDS.) After trying her hand at gansta-rap, alligator wrangling, making moonshine, double-dutch discos, she found a way to dive into her twisted mind combining her love of musicals with her love of rock. From her imagination, straight to your speakers. *Ta-da!* She hopes it causes orgasms in your ears. And puts sunshine in your hearts. La la! .....the real story is told in song.i am a camera.
