Jessica's smooth deep voice captures audiences wherever she performs, with her own unique styling and delivery. For a vocalist of only nineteen her resume reads already as a "seasoned veteran."

At the tender age of nineteen, the Bay Area Vocalist has performed as the opening act for Lani Misalucha and the Society of Seven at the Hollywood Palladium and the opening act for Rose Royce at the Avalon Club in San Jose. Johnson was a featured artist at Catalina's Jazz Club, Fairmont Hotel Lobby Lounge, Village's Golf and Country Club, Bleu Ginger, Agenda, San Jose Jazz Festival, Hollywood Palladium and the Octavia Lounge.

The San Jose State Freshman has garnered an impressive array of awards including winner of San Jose Idol at Music Matrix, Overall Female Vocalist 16-24 World Championships in Hollywood, Marin Star Search, and 8 Double Grands (perfect score) at the California State Talent Competition. In addition, she won the title of California State Teen Ambassador, was a contestant on the Apollo Amateur Night on Tour and was nominated Best New Artist of the year, 2005 by South Bay Entertainment.

April 21, 2007 marked the release of Jessica Johnson recently released her debut album Till it Happens to You, a collection of jazz standards & contemporary songs arranged with an intriguing original jazz twist.
