Details:
Born and raised in Marietta, North Carolina, Jessica Edwards had a love for music since she was able to talk. You could say she was born with a microphone in her hand. Growing up in a large family, Jessica has always been surrounded by music. Her musical experience started in church where she was a member of the youth choir. She then dreamed of making music her career. Having idolized the great Whitney Houston, Yolanda Adams, and Lauryn Hill, she has grown accustomed to smooth and soulful R&B with a vocal range of 5 octaves. Jessica has portrayed the seductiveness and sexiness of Janet Jackson, the wholesomeness of the early Mariah Carey, and the sultriness of Whitney Houston throughout her music. She takes you on a journey of love and hate, happiness and despair that everyday people can relate to.

As music major at North Carolina A&T State University, Jessica has made her way to the top in her home state with her upbeat and enlightening music. Currently, four of her songs are in radio rotation. The slow heartbreaker “I Don’t Need You Now”, the up tempo “Let Me Know: and the laidback jazzy “Behind Closed Doors” are all being played on A&T’s campus radio station 90.1 The oh-so-ever classic R&B track, “Rescue Me”, is being played on Carolina’s KISS 107.7. Showcases in the cities of Atlanta, Cleveland, and Greensboro are being scheduled to use as a tool to promote her new single “Behind Closed Doors”. The single is being played in music stores, clubs, and is featured on the website, www.DephaEntertainment.com. Her main objective is to reach people with her music and to have them feel where she is coming from.

Jessica has stared in many musicals such as “Guys and Dolls”, “Big River”, and “Bye-Bye Birdie”. Selected as winner in the B&K Production sponsored showcase in Largo, Maryland, her shows are exciting and captivating complete with dance routines, backup singers, stage props, and her own band. This light-hearted, somewhat shy individual brings a certain presence to the stage that will blow you away. Having Roderick “Dephat” Carter working on her new album and a team of highly devoted members backing her up, Jessica will be a success.

Selling 500+ copies independently on her own, Jessica is a dream come true for the industry. Her music is filled with love and soul, her shows filled with sounds you find yourself bobbing your head to, her life filled with positivity, and with her mind set on a goal and a heart of determination, Jessica is making a name for herself in this business we call music.
