Not since the 1960's has such an unadulterated singer/songwriter come to the music scene. A soul from the past, with an understanding of today's humanity, Jessica Peterson is a prolific songwriter who opens our minds and emotions to today's issues. Jessica started out at the age of 5, playing and writing songs by ear on her grandmother's piano. She soon taught herself how to play the guitar and has been inspired by artists such as Ani Difranco, Janis Joplin, the Bob's (Marley and Dylan), Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, among other amazing talents. She has devoted much of her time to the art of song writing, perfecting her unique style of finger-picking and brilliant chord structures, her songs take on a rhythmically soulful journey through upbeat, playful songs to passionate ballads. Her 2004 self-titled album features performances from Pete Snell, Armando Compean, Kate Higgins, Lee Spath and various other talented artists.
