Discovering her love for music, Jessie Daniels began to use this as a way to express her deepest feelings. According to her official website, Jessie quotes, "I don’t have anything special to offer except myself. I want to show people ME. And who I am. And I’m not totally dysfunctional and I’m not perfect. I’m a normal teenage girl, as any other, struggling with faith, trust, and love." Full of heart and soul, Jessie's faith in God is evident as she talks and lives her life. She has a lot of offer and everyone should see and hear her amazing talents!

- First, can you please introduce yourself?: Hey everyone! My name is Jessie Daniels. I'm 16 years old. I grew up on Long Island, New York. Ever since I was little I loved singing, dancing, and anything that had to do with music. I am so happy that now I am able to share my music with others on a professional level.
- How would you describe your music style?: Pure rock - the songs are written straight from the experiences I go through and what I have learned from them. I also write about my heart and what i feel about things that go on in my life.
- When will your album be released?: I have a limited edition EP releasing in November - available exclusively at www.jessiedaniels.com. My full CD should be in stores by late Spring 2004.
- What is your favorite song off the album?: All the songs on the EP have special meaning to me, to pick a favorite is impossible!
- How do you feel about performing with Sheryl Crow and Lonestar at the 2003 Texas Stampede next month?: Wow, I feel so blessed. It's such a great opportunity for me to share my music and my message with so many people. I'm really excited!
- If you could perform with anyone who would it be and why?: That's a hard one, my mind changes everyday because there are so many great artists out there. But right now it would have to be the group MercyMe.
- What are some of your up-coming projects?: Right now I am currently writing for my upcoming album and performing all over. For performance updates check out my website.
- How have your friends and family reacted to your stardom?: I wouldn't call it "stardom" because I'm not in it to be a star. I'm here to show people who I am, what God has done in my life, and to share God with others. Where do you hope this journey takes you?: I hope this journey leads me to touch many hearts and connect with many people that will benefit from the message of my music.
- What would you like to say to your fans?: Trust in God above all else, He's the one who will give you purpose for your life and will love you unconditionally.
