JES Bio:
Born and raised in New York City, JES realized at an early age that singing was her passion. She spent years perfecting her truly unique vocal style, working in various studios and professional situations. While working in a Los Angeles studio, JES met Mike Olson and the two formed Guardians of Earth. The group gained attention on the very popular MP3.com with songs like “Starchildren” and “One Moon Circling”. “Starchildren,’’ would go on to be
included on Paul Van Dyks, the Politics of Dancing series. Through the success of that cd, JES began collaborating with more DJ's like D:fuse and Deepsky, producing tracks like "Living The Dream" and "Talk Like A Stranger" along with many others. Ultimately, this lead to the collaboration with Gabriel & Dresden to form Motorcycle, producing the Billboard #1 Dance Hit "As The Rush Comes". It wasn’t long before she caught the attention of the superstar global DJ and producer Tiesto. JES’s songs have been included on Tiesto’s In Search Of Sunrise, 4, 5, 6, and 7 albums. JES also penned the hit "Everything" with Tiesto for the Grammy nominated Elements Of Life album. Since signing with Tiesto’s label, Black Hole Recordings, JES completed her
debut solo album. In 2007, Disconnect was released and can be described as an epic trance journey, incorporating elements of rock, and showcasing her utterly unique style of roctroninca. The first single "Ghost" hit radio worldwide, and has been licensed to over twenty popular Dance compilations. The next single "Heaven", with its music video shot entirely in her hometown NYC, showcased the more edgy, rock side of JES’s sound.
The, JES scored as the only female artist involved in the Coke WE8 project for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Using the theme, “Individual Perseverance,” JES
composed “Be It All,” to accompany Jiang Hua’s unique and creative bottle design. To help promote the project, JES was invited to perform live at the Coca-Cola Shuang Zone during the historical Olympic events week. Next up for JES is the release of her long awaited third single, “Imagination.” With powerhouse remixes from Tiesto, Kaskade, and Michael Moog, “Imagination,” showcases her celestial voice and lyrics that have made her one of the most sought after vocalist and songwriter in Electronic Dance music today.
