Jessica Meuse bio:





Jessica Meuse is an American performer from Slapout,
Alabama. She has wowed audiences since the age of 10 and plays
several instruments (guitar, piano, and classical violin). 
At 20, Jessica won the statewide artist showcase, Stars of
Alabama.  





A spot on Season 3 of NBC’s The Voice followed, where she
made it to the blind auditions and was on Vans Warped Tour. 
Jessica was then selected by American Idol’s judges, Keith Urban,
Jennifer Lopez, and Harry Connick, Jr., for Season 13 of the TV
series where she rose to be a Top 4 National Finalist. 
Jessica also became the first person in the history of Idol to
perform her own original song during the finals and joined Idols
LIVE Tour, performing in 40+ cities across the USA and
Canada.  





Jessica is currently independent and actively pursuing
opportunities in both the music and acting worlds.  Shortly
after her second full-length album, "Half Hearted" was released,
it hit Top 10 on iTunes Country Albums and its songs have amassed
over 8 million streams, appearing in Apple Music Country Hot
Tracks and being added to numerous Spotify/Apple Music
playlists.


Meuse's first single, "Thank God It Didn't Work" was a Top
100 Mediabase Country Song at terrestrial radio and her second
single, "Love Her Better," is currently being promoted to country
outlets around the country.  The song's music video has been
honored with awards at seven different film festivals.  “I
wrote Love Her Better after dating a guy for 4 months," notes
Jessica.  "It was long enough for his true colors come
out…he thought it was ok to cheat on me with his ex-girlfriend
AND a married lady!  He made me so mad that I had to record
this song!”


Jessica's ongoing schedule has her traveling around the
country with ongoing festival tour dates and radio/tv
appearances.  On a personal note, Jessica is a fitness buff
and brand ambassador for various products, dedicates time to
raising awareness about Domestic Violence, Cyberbullying, St.
Jude, and Children's Cancer Association, while continuing to
record and tour.  She is also an avid gamer and streamer on
Twitch and raises money for Extra Life and Children's Miracle
Network each year that she can.  You can find Jessica's
