hello. i'm Jessica*Renae. i am a drummer in a band but i like to write my own music as well. i hope u like it. and ya i know i'm not a good singer.
Why this name?
It's just my first and middle names. thats all. nuttin special.
Do you play live?
i've only played live a few times. i get really nervous when i sing. i'm okay with playing tho. playing live is the greatest thing ever. nothing compares.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
it helps bands who dont have the money and support yet get out there and get noticed. i know that i myself listen to alot of "unheard of" bands that i've found on the internet. and its an amazing thing.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
i dont know if i want to go that far. i mean its a dream and everything to make a living with music, but i wouldnt want it to consume me. it seems like alot of bands that go all the way become arrogant and such. and i dont want to be that way.
Band History:
my parents bought me an electric guitar for my 8th grade grad. gift. and i had an acoustic before that. i've been playing for about 5 years now. and four years ago i started writing my own stuf. i kinda just wrote when i got super inspired, which didnt happen often, so i only had three songs in three years. but recently i've just been writing whatever comes to mind and i've written three more in the past 6 months. i dont know if i want to expand and have a full band backing me up, or if i want to stay as just myself. i can play drums and bass so i dont NEED a band for like backup on tracks and such. but ya. we'll see how it plays out. mayb some day i will.
Your influences?
i listen to alot of harcore/ screamo/ rock/ punk/ emo stuf but i dont really write that style. well i guess a little emo. i'd hafta say that my older songs were influenced by green day, but my newer stuf is influenced by Backseat Goodbye (http://www.purevolume.com/backseatgoodbye) he's an amazing singer. check em out. if u like my stuf, u'll love his.
Equipment used:
my acoustic is broken (neck snapped). so i play my electric clean. its a knockoff brand and so is my amp but hey, they work. i plan to get a new Ibanez AEL10E acoustic/electric soon. those are absolutely amazing!
