Jayesslee

ABOUT THEM:

Janice and Sonia have fond memories of their childhood. When asked, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Their answers were a variation of a teacher, a painter and at one point in time even a shop-keeper. Funny though, never did they mention a musician or a performer as something they wanted to become. They had no idea what was headed their way.

In 2008 the duo discovered the world of YouTube. Fascinated by the concept of connecting with an unseen audience all over the world, they created their first account under the name "Jayesslee". The name was their attempt to be clever - fusing both of their initials and spelling it out.

Jayesslee's first video was uploaded in their messy bedroom, doubtful that anybody would take notice. However the subscribers steadily increased over a year and it wasn't until 2009 when the two saw a sudden boost in followers after their viral hit cover of Tamia's "Officially Missing You" (currently over 12 million hits). 

In 2010 they packed their bags and flew to LA for the duo's first ever debut concert. Since then, they have visited numerous parts of the world such as Singapore, Washington DC, Vancouver, Malaysia and Thailand performing headlining shows and meeting their amazing fans. 

The duo have recently sold out two shows in Singapore at the Kallang Theatre (the first leg of their asia tour) with more than 3,500 fans coming out to see them. The girls have also finished tracking their first studio EP available worldwide in May 2012. Janice and Sonia have made various radio/television appearances throughout asia on popular programs such as "Day Day Up", "E! News Asia", "Quickie" and the "MTV show". 

People have often asked the two what it feels like to be online celebrities. They look at each other with raised eyebrows, wondering how anyone could refer to them as celebrities (chuckle). Rather the two feel like they have made many friends from all around the world and hope to meet every one of them one day.

Their ultimate goal and motivation behind every video is to share about the hope they have found in knowing Jesus. The two are not shy in expressing their faith and indicate they would not be doing what they do if it weren't for His grace and providence. All the glory to Him.

I LOVE THEIR VOICE

Lyric Don't You Remember - Adele

When will I see you again?You left with no goodbye, not a single word was saidNo final kiss to seal anythingI had no idea of the state we were in

I know I have a fickle heart and a bitternessAnd a wandering eye and a heaviness in my head

But don't you remember? Don't you remember?The reason you loved me beforeBaby, please remember me once more

When was the last time you thought of me?Or have you completely erased me from your memory?I often think about where I would roamMore I do, the less I know

But I know I have a fickle heart and a bitternessAnd a wandering eye and a heaviness in my head

But don't you remember? Don't you remember?The reason you loved me beforeBaby, please remember me once more

I gave you the space so you could breatheI kept my distance so you would be freeAnd hope that you find the missing pieceTo bring you back to me

Why don't you remember? Don't you remember?The reason you loved me beforeBaby, please remember me once more

When will I see you again?
