Bio
Born Jessica Patricia Bernard in metropolitan Toronto, she quickly adopted the persona of Dominica, named after her beloved grandmother. The youngest of three in a musical family, Dominica has developed a unique style strongly influenced by her mother, Sade, and Tina Turner. Her style can only be categorized as "Charcoal Soul". A completely self taught guitar player, Dominica writes simple songs about complex things: love, family, home, heaven. Phrases turn, emotions connect, and melodies soar. You sing along even though you have never heard the tune. She writes from a perspective of distances, of interludes between lovers and lives and the roads that lead from small towns to big cities. She performs her original hit The Brave off the "Sacred" album, a heartfelt tribute to 9-11. Since hitting the Raleigh scene seven years ago, Dominica has continually expanded her horizons, gathering a loyal fan base across in NYC, Miami, Michigan, Toronto, Washington DC, and numerous other locales across North America. She has been fortunate to share the stage with great groups like The Josh Pepper Project, Bill West, Mother Soul, Little Feat, and Marshall Crenshaw. -

Hey there,
Here's one from left field...
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here:

Say have you checked out my web site recently?
Take care and keep in touch.
Best,
