Jessy J, California sax player extraordinaire, released one of the top new Christmas albums this season, California Christmas 2. The contemporary and Latin jazz musician has emerged as one of the top musicians in SoCal. Jessy released "Blue" earlier this in 2022, an 8-song album of original compositions, prior to California Christmas 2, with it's 9 traditional songs, reimagined as soulful Cali-jazz tunes. Jessy is also a member of Ray Chew's house band for Dancing with the Stars.
This isn't Jessy's first venture into the world of Christmas music. She released California Christmas in 2016, and was a featured performer on Merry & Bright favorite Rehya Stevens' song Fly Past My Roof on Rehya's album Celebrate.
Jessy has been very busy this season, performing gigs across the county and playing selections from California Christmas 2. Between shows, Jessy found time for a 20 Questions feature for Merry & Bright, a fun little exercise in rapid-fire Q&A, so you can learn a little bit more about Jessy!
