About me

Jessi Colasante born May 4, 1980 in Long Island New York. Music was part of her life at an early age. Her mother, a vocalist as well, recognized her talent and immediately started her taking vocal lessons with a former Metropolitan Opera performer. She also studied piano. Once she entered High School she stopped her musical studies. She did not revisit her studies until her third year of college. This is when she realized that music was her calling, that this was her God given gift and she needed to share it with the world. She studied Classical music at Nassau Community College and then Jazz at New School Jazz & Contemporary Program. She sang on Anton Bass of Karmadelics album under the Jellybean label. She has worked on projects with John Kano aka Havana Funk, which led to having a track signed with Defected records soon to be released. She is most importantly just completed her first album, which she wrote, produced and sang on. The sounds consist of Soulful vocals over spicy rhythms. Currently she is performing with her own 10 piece ensemble of some of New York’s most talented musicians as well as with some of Europe and NY’s most talented DJ’s. She has performed at many well known venues such as Pacha - Ibiza, Cafe Del Mar - Ibiza, El Divino - Ibiza, Hard Rock Cafe - Las Vegas, Nublu - NYC, Crash Mansion - NYC just to name a few. Her music consists of many styles such as Jazz, Soul House, Soul, Gospel, Samba, Latin, Funk, Reggae, Brazilian, etc. Her lyrics speak of life, pain, love, peace, strength, and weaknesses, present, past and future. Through her music she shares her soul, her experiences, and her life with the universe.
