BIO
Born on the northern reaches of Newfoundland and Labrador, Jessica Lavallee was raised in the remote village of Lourdes-de-Blanc-Sablon on the lower north shore of Quebec, an area unique to the province due to its proximity to Newfoundland and Labrador, and Canada's east coast.
Jessica's love and natural ear for music began when she was just two years old while listening to her father - also a musician - play the guitar, fiddle, accordion, and harmonica. Jessica made her debut at six years old with her father's band, playing in a local festival in Labrador close to home. Influenced by many music styles like; Classic Country, Irish, Blues and Southern Rock she blends them with her unique, powerful voice and sings stories that stay true to her roots.
A graduate of the Music Industry and Performance program at the College of the North Atlantic in Stephenville, NL, Jessica was twice featured on Canadian Idol and made top ten on Country Music Television's Karaoke Star. For the past few years Jessica has played in local clubs and festivals around the 1000 Islands, busy writing and performing music whenever she has the opportunity.
In 2016 Jessica recorded her first EP in Nashville, TN at KENT WELLS PRODUCTIONS with the talented Kent Wells. Since then, she has worked with Kent on all her musical projects. Jessica also sometimes records her vocals at THE POWDER ROOM STUDIO in Brockville, ON with the talented Randal Orr.
Grammy Nominated Producer Kent Wells also produces, and plays guitar for Dolly Parton!
