Swiss Singer-Songwriter Jessica Hirschi aka Yakaree is well known for her soulful voice and her impeccable showmanship, she has distinguished herself for many years now by performing with a myriad of soul, pop, jazz & blues bands. As a backing vocalist she has toured with numerous bands, including: Swiss reggae legend Dodo & The Liberators, TAFS, Guillermo Sorya aka Laskaar, G.G. & The Informers, Selfish or SoulClash. More recently, she has appeared on several projects, such as with rap artist Dabu Fantastic and on the debut album of rising star Steff la Cheffe. On her own solo project YAKAREE, she has collaborated with many renowned Swiss artists such as Guillermo Sorya or Churchhill to create, together with drummer and multi-instrumentalist Chrigel Bosshard (who has been touring with artists such as William White, Steff La Cheffe, Cowboys from Hell, Lunik, Bonaparte or Marc Sway), what critics have called a "soulful, heart-warming and sometimes melancholy pop songs." She is a graduate from the FeMale Funk Project Vocal Performance School (now Voice + Music Academy Zürich) and also from the IME Music Academy in Zurich, where a lot of successful Swiss artists started their musical career or used to work as teachers.

Jessica Hirschi, Kopf, Stimme und Herz der Soul-Pop Formation Yakaree, ist Eingeweihten keine Unbekannte; sie erscheint als Background- und Leadstimme auf Produktionen mit der Crème de la Crème der Schweizer Urban-Soul-, Reggae- und Pop-Szene. Soulig und dunkel, geheimnisvoll und ergreifend – Yakaree nennt sich diese Stimme, deren Trägerin weder Indianerin ist noch afrikanische Wurzeln hat. Nichtsdestotrotz aber vermag Yakaree als Schweizer Singer-Songwriterin beides in sich zu vereinen; in ihrer Stimme die afrikanische Seele, die Gegenwart und das Erbe des schwarzen Soul, des Blues und der R’n’B-Tradition, in ihren Träumen ein Mustang, der über die Prärie jagt. Durch die Zusammenarbeit mit diversen Formationen hat sie sich mit ihrer soulig warmen Stimme einen Namen gemacht, so arbeitete sie unter anderem mit renommierten Künstlern wie Steff La Cheffe, dem Zürcher Soul-König Guillermo Sorya aka Laskaar, Schweizer Reggae Legende Dodo, Dabu Fantastic, TAFS, Churchhill u.v.m. Inspiriert von Künstlerinnen wie Erykah Badu oder Lauryn Hill reiften die Ideen für Jessica Hirschis Solo-Projekt heran. Mit Schlagzeuger Chrigel Bosshard, der bereits mit diversen Künstlern wie William White, Steff La Cheffe, Cowboys from Hell, Lunik, Bonaparte oder Marc Sway tourte, entstanden über die Zeit hinweg die Songs, in welchen Jessica Hirschi als Yakaree ihre eigene musikalische Welt eingefangen hat: melancholische, herzerwärmende Soulpop-Songs. 

“Die bezaubernde Präsenz der Sängerin lädt ein in eine Welt der grossen Emotionen. Sie singt von der Liebe mit grösster Hingebung, auch wenn sie schmerzt. Ihre Lieder verbreiten so viel warme Melancholie, dass eine gewisse Tragik zum Glück meist vergessen geht.” Südostschweiz

GANJAFORCE aka The Everblazing Sound was founded in 2004 and is on of Switzerland’s Top-A-Top Reggae & Dancehall Sounds. Influenced by the Jamaican Soundsystem Culture, the Force got an authentic style of mixing songs from the early days of Rocksteady, Ska & Roots till the latest Reggae & Dancehall hits. Entertaining the audience is the key and the Force got what it takes. With the perfect mix of juggling, entertaining speeches and an impressive arsenal of Dubplates, they guarantee that everybody in the crowd enjoys the Jamaican way of raving.

As Dubplate Lovers, GANJAFORCE recorded specials with the most famous national and international Artist in the business and built a unique Dub-Box deep enough to educate “Sound-Bwoys” in the art of “Killing Sounds”. Furthermore, the Force got a collection of classic Hip-Hop Dubplates, driving every Rap enthusiast crazy.

GANJAFORCE travelled the Globe and is fascinated by the different styles and cultures of music. Supporting new talents is a must and spreading the positive message of Reggae is their mission. With the two monthly Events “VYBZ” and “Reggae Link-Up” the Force provides a continuous flow of good vibes to all Dancehall addicts. The Force has created a platform not only for new Artists & Sounds, but also for the big names in the scene, to perform in their home towns OL10 and Luzern. 

Over the last decade GANJAFORCE performed together with a countless number of Artists & Sounds, Stars & Legends. In Switzerland their name is showing up on all kind of line-up’s, from the smallest dances in a garage to the biggest events and festivals. The Force entered a Soundclash arena for three times and two times they defeated their competition and crowned themselves as champions. In 2007 GANJAFORCE won the Matterhorn Cup Clash, counting a dozen sounds from all over Switzerland. One year later they competed as youngest sound in the legendary “1-2-3 Badda Dan Clash” and made it to the “Dub-Fi-Dub”. 2012 the Force counted another victory at the “Christiania Cup Clash” in Denmark against two sounds from Norway and Sweden.

It is obvious the Force’s musical journey has only just begun, as the crew continues to work hard and keep spreading the vybz of Reggae and Dancehall music. Big Up all our Fans, Friends and Family’s for their never ending support and love over the years.
