JESSICA WAS BORN IN THE COOL SAND UNDER THE BOARDWALK IN CONEY ISLAND...HER BASINET WAS GENTLY PLACED ON A WEST-BOUND FREIGHT TRAIN, AND SHE ENDED UP IN PORTLAND, OREGON TO FRONT HER OWN HONKY-TONK BAND, AND WRITE SONGS.
MS. STILES HAS RECENTLY MOVED TO THE FINE STATE OF TENNESSEE, AND CALLS NASHVILLE HOME... _____________________________
"The music of Jessica Stiles embodies the definition of "Americana". Her solo work seamlessly blends elements of the jazz of her childhood, with folk, blues, country, and traditional songs from the British Isles."
--Jeremy Wilson, The MastanMusic Hour podcast
"Jessica Stiles has a compelling style and delivery of original Americana
music that indicates years, perhaps even a previous lifetime, of immersion
into alternative country music."
--Mike Meyer, KMHD, Portland, OR "Mississippi West"

Hello Jessica, thanx for friendship. Our new CD „Slow Horses“ will be released November 14th, available via CD Baby & ITunes. Country & Americana from Germany. Check it out now!
Hi Jess I hope you are enjoying life down there in Nashville. I'm back here in Oregon again! I enjoyed the new track on your player. Seeing you in Portland inspired me to finally get writing my own material; check out my new tracks if you have the time - I would appreciate your feedback. Much love, Bill
Sounds real nice Jessica. I have a crazy daughter out there in Portland. If you see a cute redhead with a blonde mandolin, say hello for me. Hope to meet you one of these days at some Americana hoedown. I'd love to see you live. All the best, Duncan
me... well I have not been doing much playing out lately I have been more in a recording sort of mind set. I helped a friend mix his EP and now I am working on another friends demo. So have you used your blue bird ticket yet? If not am sure you are just dying to get back there.
