This is technically a one man band, featuring Jessica Delfino - on guitar, vocals, jokes, brains, wholesome body, etc...
...but there are so many other people behind the scenes making this ship go FORWARD! Here are a few of the other members in my "band":
Michael I - played guitar on the CD "I Wanna Be Famous"
Nick Fox-Gieg, Matt Davis, and others - produced videos
LoudmouthRecords.com and Misha Volf - handled some of the business end of the business and produced my "I Wanna Be Famous" CD
JuliaNewman.com, Crystal Selbee, Alex M. Smith and Doug Jaeger - took tons of press pics and have helped to make sure I look like a beauty queen in print and on-line
Countless friends and enemies - who have inspired a competitive fire in my brain that fuels the genius
...and viewers and listeners like you...thank you for encouraging and discouraging me!

ABOUT ME:
I am a song singer and a joke teller and a story spinner and a comic drawer and an all around artist. If I were alive in the olden days, they would have burned me at the stake!
I live in NYC where I perform all the time. My favorite things to do are tour, travel, write, and perform. My favorite kind of sandwich is peanut butter and jelly.

SOME OF MY PRESS:
I was described as "A cross between Redd Foxx and Jewel" by The Onion. Here are some more things that people who write things wrote about me:
"Comedic Discovery of the Month" --Comedy Central
"High Times Unsigned Band of the Week" --High Times
"Jessica Delfino is a comedian-songwriter who can warble with the earnestness of a folksinger while elucidating the finer points of oral sex. A cross between Redd Foxx and Jewel, Delfino sincerely strums her guitar in time to funny, often dirty lyrics with a well-practiced deadpan." --The Onion A.V. Club
"Jessica Delfino has sang, danced, and comedianed her way to LES notoriety--some feat . . . . Plan to squirm, laugh and perhaps squirm again." --Time Out New York
"Best Potty-Mouthed, Guitar-Slinging Comedian" -- Best Of 2005 , The Village Voice
"We were immediately stuck to our seats stunned and smiling as Jessica Delfino engaged us in tune after tune referencing her, and others, vagina(s)...She is funny. And smart." -- Thurston Moore & Byron Coley, Arthur Magazine
"Fetchingly filthy. . . . Some of the most nasty, offensive, degrading and genius comedy you'll see all year." --New York Blade
"Our pick . . . best known for funny (and dirty) musical numbers and a
video that was provocative enough to be taken off YouTube" --The
Washington Post
" * * * 1/2 [out of 4]" --Jane Magazine
"The Lower East Side's folkie queen of obscene" --The Village Voice
"Jessica Delfino is a delightful young lady who likes to sing whimsical songs about her vag. She's sassy!" -- VICE Magazine
"Let me be absolutely clear about this, without any exaggeration: If you had to pay one live human baby in exchange for a ticket to her show, it would be worth it. More than worth it. . . . The songs are written and performed by Jessica and are hilarious. They're so funny that no word exists to describe them." --The
Triangle, The Student Newspaper at Drexel University, Philadelphia
"She's a brilliant writer." --Wil Wheaton, Wil Wheaton dot Net
"Hilariously ribald." -- BackStage.com
"Legendary" --The L Magazine
"Adorably twisted. . . . Alternately sexy and hilarious. . . . Delfino captures such painful truth [that] you can’t help but simultaneously laugh and sigh." --hellohilarious.com
“One of the weirdest and best things you’ll see this year” -- Time Out London
