Jessica Meuse - Halfhearted (2018)

Hailing from Slap out, AL, Jessica has been a natural performer, wowing audiences since the age of 10. At 20, she won the state-wide artist showcase, Stars of Alabama, and in 2013 was part of the Vans Warped Tour. Meuse's tenure on American Idol led to her becoming the first person in the history of the hit series to perform her own composition, "Blue-eyed Lie," during the finals. "Jessica pulled together a powerful performance of her original song," commented Ryan Seacrest "I already have many new original songs written and I believe our team will make some of the best sounding Jessica Meuse music yet. The direction for my album will lean country, loaded with soul, truth, and a twist of my alt-rock influence. I'm ready for this next level of my musical journey and am happy to have a great group of people supporting me along the way!"
