JES

Having recently played gigs at the Playboy Mansion, Jes puts the sass into this year‘s Godskitchen lineup! This New York native started her singing career by answering a classified ad in The Village Voice  and recording a song, which then saw her front numerous bands and sing backing vocals for major labels. But, her first hit came when she sang on Motorcycles "As the Rush Comes" which was a monster club hit and climbed the charts. On the back of the song, Jes played the Bacardi Festival, World Electronic Music Festival and Fresh, as well as warming up the stage for BeyoncĂ© and Maroon 5 on "Top of the Pops".

Now, signed onto Tiesto‘s label Black Hole Recordings, Jes has been creating her own sounds and has two artist albums under her belt. Her debut Disconnect has been described as an "epic trance journey", with a taste of "rocktronica" - a sound Jes coined the term for. Tiesto took the singer under his wing as she toured the globe with him and she even penned his track "Everything". Her follow up Into the Dawn took tracks from her first release and deconstructed them into more down-tempo sounds.
