Jessica Sonner

"It's all worth it for me when people take something away from what they hear in my music," replied singer/songwriter, Jessica Sonner, during a recent interview. Leaving behind the snowcapped mountains of Colorado, stopping in Anderson Indiana to get her bachelors degree in music business, and making the big city of Chicago home these days, Sonner released her self titled ep in December 2005, featuring fan favorites Rescue Me, Fool, and Open Your Eyes. She has since established herself as an emerging folk-rock artist with a bright future ahead.
