About Me

Hi there! My name is Jess Bowman, and I am a 26 year old singer, songwriter, and musician. 

Growing up listening to artists such as Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton have played a massive part in who I am as a musician today. I love to have variety in my setlist that makes sure there is something for everyone to enjoy! My biggest musical inspiration is Ed Sheeran. I discovered  loop pedal when I was around 14 and started incorporating it in my gigs when I was 19. The loop pedal gives me the opportunity to widen my performance making myself into a "one man band" on the stage.

I started piano lessons at five years old and self taught guitar at age eleven. I wrote my first song back when I was sixteen and have been singing for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I have learned to play a multitude of instruments that include; piano, guitar, drums & ukulele!  I started playing gigs at small events and farmers markets when I was seventeen and since then have had the honour of getting to professionally play music at many pubs, restaurants, festivals, and weddings around Clearview, Collingwood, Barrie, Orillia and surrounding areas for almost 10 years.
