"Jess Abran Febuary Edition"

Solo artist Jess Abram is a flirt. Her textured melodies are winsome, sweet, and have the appearance of winking at the listener. Quite emotions valley round the artist’s fingers and dance on top of strings with both original songs and innovative covers. Jess Abram promises her listeners with hypnotic melodies that dragon flies will land still and perch on their shoulders, that the snow will melt, and we will all be privileged to watch the sunset and she will carry us into the night. - The IX Daily


"Jess Abran "REPRISE" Video"

While everyone is compiling best-of lists, we're continuing to forge ahead by looking at new releases. Juliette Jagger reports on what made it through our double-filtering process today. - AC

This video really nails the ominous appeal and vibe of the song. Taking these almost priestly chants, pairing them with these sexed, breathless, vocals, and tastefully implying the physical, it almost feels like a crime to enjoy it.

Sounds like: Misbesavior.

"FEATURE - JESS ABRAN"

“I’ve been singing since I was a kid stuck in a play pen.”

Only now, it seems nothing is holding back local Montreal artist, Jess Abran. No longer a small child stuck inside the confines of a play pen, the young up-and-coming musician looks to have banished any limitations thrown her way and is seriously pushing the envelope of what it means to be an independent artist.

Pride should maybe even be a synonym to Abran’s name. - MTL BLOG

"Jess Abran works hard at her musical career, but The Montreal musician hasnt limited her art to only guitar strumming and singing. Abran is a double-threat, and no, not in the intimidating violent sort of way."
