Jess’s story is a testament to raw talent, resilience, and the power of music as both an escape and a calling. Born and raised in remote outback Australia—far from the glitz of pop culture—she discovered her voice almost by accident, using songwriting and the piano as a refuge from bullying and depression. What began as a personal coping mechanism soon blossomed into a gift that captivated her community, leading to local performances and, eventually, a global journey.  

​

Her formal training at the Gold Coast Conservatorium honed her natural abilities, and her fearless pursuit of live performance took her across England, Europe, and Canada, where she racked up accolades like winning Vancouver’s Cellar Launch Project and the Nationwide Rising Star Contest, earning her a spot at the Squamish Valley Music Festival.  

​

Jess’s music is a seamless blend of introspective folk, soulful roots, and sharp pop hooks, all anchored by her striking voice and evocative piano melodies. Her lyrics are candid, her choruses soaring—bridging the emotional depth of a singer-songwriter with the magnetic appeal of a radio-ready artist.  

​

Now based in Los Angeles, Jess Edo is poised for the next chapter—one that promises to bring her soul-stirring sound to even wider audiences as a songwriter, artist, and producer. Whether through haunting ballads or anthemic pop, her music doesn’t just resonate; it lingers.
