ABOUT

Get ready because this R&B bombshell is about to explode!! Jessie Mays is the Lead singer of Funk / R&B band Downbeat Groove (Now Groove Revived). Starting with the very first note that escapes her vocal chords, her audience is enamored with the sultry, gritty and yet silky sound that she releases. Jessie's sound has been compared to greats such as Etta James and Alicia Keys with a funk and jazz twist comparable to Andra Day. Hitting notes high above the atmosphere, this vocalists trade mark is defiantly her range and style. This mucisan/ vocalist posesses the grace and energy in her performance to keep the audience engaged from beginning to end. Every performance is stellar.
