Jessica Townsend is a gifted singer/songwriter who has achieved much in her 21 years. Some of the highlights include singing the national anthem at numerous events such as Olympic Torch Ceremony at celebrations for the Gold Medallist women’s water polo team, World Title and international boxing matches at the Brisbane Convention Centre, the Penny Silks Memorial Surf Competition and the Fisher Community Australia Day Awards, where she was also awarded a Young Achiever’s Award, for musical talents and contribution to community events. In 2002 Jessica also won Best Actress in a Musical at the Sunshine Coast Theatre Alliance’s Star Awards for playing Eponine in Les Miserables. Jessica has also performed at many high profile corporate and radio station events as lead singer in a trio called Flirt.
Flirt began working with award-winning producer Duncan Wood but as other members fell away, Duncan believed Jessica had what it took to forge a successful solo career and encouraged Jessica to cultivate her songwriting skills. Jessica began co-writing with him and this collaboration has created a style and sound that is completely her own. Jessica’s debut album will be released in early 2007.
