ABOUT

Hello, I'm Jessica, pleased to meet you! Here's my deal:

I played guitar in a punk band in Olympia in the early 90s, then switched to bass and played in an another Oly band in the mid-00s. Nothing I was ever really that into, just having fun with friends.

I don’t read music or know any theory, but have become a fairly good player despite this. I’ve got style, for miles and miles. I’d really like to start a free noise slash improv group, but assume there are no Blowhole or Dead C fans reading this. Unless I’m wrong. In which case you should definitely contact me!

On my own time I intended to keep making solo electronic music as Winter Strawberries. I've also recently started playing in a shoegaze / dark wave band.

1-4 Winter Strawberries
5-6 Some rock music I came up with for some reason
