"Jess Carson holds her Bachelor of the Arts degree in Creative Writing with a minor in Music from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. Her interests include solving the great enigmas of the universe while snacking on a large tub of cookie dough ice cream. She's especially fond of fuzzy things, words that rhyme with 'orange', and heavy sarcasm. Despite her refined evasive maneuvers, she is still a sucker for a left hook. Her music has been featured in a variety of short films and her fiction has previously been published by The Diverse Arts Project."

Jo Lee (they/them) is a solo artist born and raised in Brooklyn. They play at creating a New York sound, blending R&B and Pop with Hip Hop and Afro-Latin grooves. Nonbinary and queer, Jo is proud to use their voice to entertain and empower their community.

On stage, Jo Lee earned a reputation for making you cry one minute and serving you sass in the next. They love riding the line of NYC's glamour and grit.

Jo Lee wrote, produced, recorded and mixed their new single “Heaven”. Intended to be a happy song, it evolved into a song about resisting the idea that being queer is wrong. “Heaven” is about reimagining paradise and finding it in love, especially queer love.

Jo Lee is an active member of the queer a cappella group TONEWALL. The group is the current northeast champion of the International Aca-Open semifinal. TONEWALL performed at Carnegie Hall, PrideFest at World Pride, Yankee Stadium, Red Bulls Stadium, and Sony Hall.

Just a girl with an average musical ability, an okay computer, and limited knowledge of technology.
