JUST LIKE JESSIE JAMES

With her extra-ordinary powerhouse vocals, one could almost compare 20 year old US singer Jessie James to our own Vanessa Amorosi, and with an appearance on the soundtrack of the movie ‘Confessions Of A Shopaholic’, the singer appears well on her way to turning herself into a global name. Italian born and US raised, Jessie and her music caught the ear of the right people at the respected Mercury Records a few years back and the rest (as they say most often) is history. Collaborating with a number of songwriters including one Miss Katy Perry, Jessie is set to release her as yet untitled debut album in the middle of the year. It’s release will be preceded by first single ‘Wanted’, the video for which was shot last weekend. She’s a little bit country, a little bit rock and roll, but Jessie James is also infused with a whole lotta soul – and if this little live clip of her visit to Milwaukee’s WMYX FM is anything to go by, she’s destined to go a long, long way. Wish her a happy 21st birthday next Sunday (April 12) by clicking on her OFFICIAL MYSPACE.
