Jessica Star sings at Kenny’s Castaways for the Tuesday night jam and talks about it!

Tonight was a great time at Kenny’s Castaways. I have seven new songs that I’m singing with the band; Damn your eyes and Shakey Ground (Etta James), Groove me (King Floyd), Super Duper Love and Some kind of wonderful (Joss Stone), I want to take you higher (Ike and Tina Turner), and Do right man (Aretha Franklin). We played all of them tonight in preparation for our gig this Friday at the Dinosaur Barbque in Harlem. I have a feeling that show is going to be very fun.

 There’s a lot of energy in the air right now! Summer solstice just happened and it definitely feels like there’s more light!





Good night,



Jessica Star

we saw John Rich and Cowboy Troy play in Atlantic City this weekend!

We went to Atlantic City this weekend and saw John Rich and Cowboy Troy ROCK Bally’s!!! The audience was mainly people who were gambling and then went to see the live show but there were some true fans in the house!!! MEEEE!!! I got the crowd up and rushing the stage! I mean, I know it was really the band but no one was dancing except yours truly and then two other righteous ladies joined me and then we danced to the front of the stage… On the third time we did this, all these people joined in! It was awesome. Two Foot Fred was getting down! They had a really good female duo with them called Jane Deere.

 We walked the boardwalk and eventually settled on diner food at Johnny Rockets. The next day after sleeping in pretty late, we ate at a posh spot on the boardwalk in the Trump hotel and then went down to the beach and were giddy as our feet sunk deeper into the sand, lapping wave by lapping wave.

I sang tonight at Kenny’s Castaway’s for the Tuesday night jam with Jason Rosen

I just got home from the Tuesday night jam with Jason Rosen now happening at Kenny’s Castaways. What a cool venue! Have you ever heard musicians refer to themselves as “pirates” or “pirate types”? Well, Kenny’s Castaway’s is like the inside of a big ship! The jam was fun and the regular crew of jammers were there. I went and got myself some chicken kabob afterwards and hopped in a cab to come home to beautiful Brooklyn.

 I am still working on writing my new cd! Geez, it takes time sometimes. I’m working on writing these very cool Country songs that have a lot of soul and directly reflect my own experiences. It is fun. This will be the first cd that I’ve done that was made as a complete album- starting from the songwriting. The others were compilations of songs I had written over the years. There might be a few old songs (old only to me since you haven’t heard them) that I put on the cd but mostly it will be brand new creations.



It’s late, goodnight!
