Growing up in and around Chicago, Jessica Robinson had to share the stage at home with four brothers and one sister. Maybe that's one reason why she seems to instinctively know how to cut through the clutter, grab an audience's attention and not let go.

A young, energetic spitfire with riveting vocal skills, Jessica is now the lead singer of a popular Chicagoland cover act. She has performed at the Green Bay Packers pre-game show two years in a row, as well as at NASCAR 2004. She and her band were also voted "Best Dance Band in Chicago" by Suburban Nightlife magazine and won the "Battle of the Bands" at Arlington Racetrack in 2004.

Unsurprisingly for a pure vocalist of her caliber, Jessica tends to gravitate toward other powerhouse singers, like Scott Weiland of Velvet Revolver and Gwen Stefani of No Doubt.

Though she works in a coffee house on the side and may not have the experience of some of her fellow competitors, Jessica's sheer talent and irrepressible personality make her anything but a longshot. She believes she is prepared to assume the role of INXS' lead singer and all that comes with it. After all, her life centers around performing music and fulfilling her dream of becoming a rock star.
