jessa was raised by new yorkers who couldn’t have grown up more differently. A jewish woman who grew up on the Upper West Side and a black man from Harlem with family roots in Conway, South Carolina. jessa has always had constant exposure to these two vastly different worlds, and her sound reflects this.
jessa’s father, John Gore, is a seasoned artist manager. jessa started her journey in music by leaning heavily on her dad’s industry relationships - out of this came access to top producers, writers, engineers, and studios.
Over the past year jessa has been exploring music on her own terms. In straying from industry connections and building new relationships with young musicians who are all trying to forge their own paths, jessa has come into her own and developed a more genuine sound.
She has spent time refining her lyricism and writing style as well as gotten comfortable doing more experimental projects - working outside of the studio in with friends has become jessa's preferred method for creating. The goal is to make music that feels like her, not what people around her think she should sound like.
