Edge of the Wilderness

New EP released January 20, 2023. Immersive electronic textures, visceral rock dynamics, & infectious pop melodies + deeply personal stories of pain, loss, & love. It’s a protest, a ballad, a journal & a ride through uncharted realms.

Available now on all music platforms.

Whenever I’m creating, the thing I enjoy most is the ability it gives me to express emotions. To communicate something that’s deep and true. From music, to poetry, to social media posts, to my taking-forever-to-finish novel, it’s all about getting what’s swirling around on the inside OUT. So. Nice to meet you.

“Her voice is angelic and calm juxtaposed against her guttural lyrics.”

— Modern Mystery Blog

Edge of the Wilderness is a refreshingly open EP. While most artists avoid such heavy topics, Jessica leans in and says what she means without any apologies. I highly recommend listening to Edge of the Wilderness.”
