On Thursday March 18, 2021, I conducted my very first Instagram LIVE interview with R&B singer/songwriter Jessica Jolia. I had so much fun chatting with this future Grammy winner, who is widely known for her versatility and multi-octave vocal range.

During our 3-hour interview, we covered everything from Jessica’s music, to her creative process, to her favorite breakfast. I had such a blast in this interview that I made Jessica a ‘Friend’ in my head even before our conversation was officially over. She was the perfect first guest, which begins a new chapter for my Studio Q interviews during this pandemic. The talent, personality and work ethic that she embodies is not only a triple threat but a rare combination in the world of music. I was blown away to learn about all she has done as an artist both on stage and in the studio. She sings, writes, produces and plays multiple instruments, which is all released on her own record label, Dekada Records.

Jessica’s debut single "Sometimes," independently released and featured in the critically acclaimed film Sister Code, quickly attracted the attention of listeners across all platforms and reached over a million streams on Spotify. Her stellar performances on The Ellen Show and the Late Late Show with James Corden have been written about and featured in The Source, This Is RnB, The A&R Report, Rolling Soul Brazil and many other publications worldwide. She has continued to hone her skills as a musician, pouring her love and passion for music into her career as an artist and songwriter.

Jessica is also the recipient of the 2020 SAMMIES AWARD for Best Singer/Songwriter, which recognizes Sacramento’s biggest and brightest in music. As an advocate of music education, innovation and entrepreneurship, Jessica proudly serves as founder and owner of Dekada Records, an independent record label, and as a voting member of The Recording Academy. She has also toured and recorded with some of the biggest names in the music industry, including Grammy Award-winning hip-hop artists: Dr. Dre and T.I. Harris. From Pop music’s hottest acts - Meghan Trainor, The Jonas Brothers, Rita Ora, The Chainsmokers and Iggy Azalea, to the legendary Smokey Robinson, Earth Wind & Fire and Stevie Wonder, to R&B's finest - Teddy Riley, Faith Evans, New Edition, Kenny Lattimore, Johnny Gill and Eric Benet, Jessica has performed to sold out stadiums, festivals and arenas across the globe.
