Singer
Liverpool

Janessa is an established singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with a degree in Songwriting & Performance. Her love for music started by listening to The Beatles, Billy Joel and The Beach Boys, which led her to start singing and playing bass at the age of 10. Her passion took her from Nashville, TN to study at the Liverpool Institute For Performing Arts all the way in the UK. From there, Janessa's love of songwriting and producing blossomed. Often described as an "Old Soul," her songs blend between a timeless charm and modern pop. She has performed at The Grand Ole Opry alongside Hunter Hayes, The Cavern Club, EBGBs and P&O Cruises' "710 Club".
