newest young lady to our fold please read her biog below
As a singer and actress who continuously strives for perfection and excellence, Jessica is no stranger to a very hectic schedule. She began singing at the age of 6, drawn to an eclectic mix of musical performers. She has both in-studio and on-stage experience. She insists that working in studio is just as exciting as performing before large audiences. "In studio, it’s yourself, the mic and your emotions. But on stage, you’re connecting with people in the audience, you feel a song differently because of it."
She appreciates the working environment of a studio, which comes with its own rewards. "It’s like being in your own world. You go in having no clue what the final product is going to be like. When I finally get to hear a fully-mixed song, I plunge right into what the lyrics are communicating and it’s like getting into it all over again."
Jessica's talents for the stage have also led her into acting. She has been on screen (independent films), on television (videoclip, television shows and commercial) and in theatre productions.
Jessica is presently in studio with reputable Canadian Producer, Songwriter and Musician TINO IZZO. Over the last 15 years, Tino has produced and/or written a string of number 1 singles, as well as several gold and platinum albums. Tino has recently composed "A World To Believe In" on CELINE DION's latest CD ¨TAKING CHANCES¨ as well as having produced for Celine's prior CD,¨D'Elles¨. (…GAROU/SAYA/MARILOU…)
Jessica has a deep appreciation for the lyrical content of her songs. The feelings of loneliness that emerge from a relationship gone wrong with a close friend, getting older, living freely, living in the now, making an effort not to think about all the worries that invade one's life, how she and her friends grew up so quickly and how you sometimes want to desperately slow down time, are recurring themes in the lyrics of her songs. She's hopeful that others will be able to relate to the songs on their many levels, even the more playful undertones of a song like Wiser Still and its uncanny reference to Cheerios. She quips: "I still like Cheerios, but I love my Special Ks as I get older."
Jessica has managed to stay focused and maintain a high level of achievement in her other pursuits, which include, a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, modeling work and academics, where she has earned multiple awards while enrolled in an enriched program. Ultimately, she fits it all in her schedule, as a matter of personal discipline, while still finding time to enjoy life's more entertaining activities. "I'm into Facebook, sleepovers, amusement parks, scary movies, dancing, parties, going out and of course, MSN and the phone." As far as image and style goes, it's pretty open. "I don't have one particular style. I like casual dress, just jeans and a t-shirt. I also enjoy to dress up if I have to go anywhere, but I am not influenced in what I wear, in any particular way."
ARTIST INFO:
Montreal, Que – JESSICA LOREN emerges into the scene with the first four offerings from her debut album in production – Developed by BLUEROOM STUDIO Inc. Producer Tino Izzo.
Jessica is 15 years old. Quite young but quite exceptional.
The material is age appropriate with a positive message.
Stemming from a youth (pre-teen) ¨Rocker¨ anthem song like L.O.L. to, as you move forward to the following songs on the presentation, LONELY/FOREVERMORE and WISER STILL there..s a nice progression into HOT AC.
Brilliantly sober performances for such a young artist.
