About Me



www.burnthefloor.com
Jessica believes she was born to perform, and in one way or another has been presenting herself for peoples enjoyment since the age of 10. Her passion to sing really kicked in during the Sydney 2000 Olympics when she represented her background country (Uruguay) by singing their national anthem in front of the Uruguayan athletes. She is a seasoned performer with experience including, Graduating Talent programs, entertaining crowds at NRL Football games, ANZAC Day dawn services, “Carols by Candlelight”, TV special “Schools Spectacular”, Sang for the 2009 Oscars celebrations and has performed with many music legends including; Mark  Williams, John Paul Young, Loretta Devine and Rita Moreno (West Side Story fame) just to name a few.
At the age of 18, Jessica received a scholarship to attend the Australian Institute of Music to study a Bachelor of Music. When, only 6 months into her first year, Jessica entered a talent contest, she could never have imagined where the performance would take her. She was discovered by cast members from the dance sensation ‘Burn The Floor’ and landed the singing role in the show as the lead singer. Jessica never have thought that her performance would lead to such a life changing career opportunity. As a 19 year old, Jessica was able to tour through Australia, Europe and the US, where she was discovered by MacRay Artist Management.  While maintaining an already tough schedule singing with Burn the Floor, Jessica is also working on her debut album for release early next year.  Continuing to tour and work in the studio, Jessica’s impact on the music scene is already unmistakable.  br>
