“It is such an honor to be part of Billboard’s top 15 artists to watch in 2018. It’s moments like these that I dreamed of since I was a little girl with a guitar that was bigger than me,” said Jessie Chris.
“There are no words to describe how proud I am of Jessie. I saw videos of Jessie performing on Facebook three years ago and knew immediately there was something very special about Jessie, and that her voice, story and talent needed to be shared with others on a whole new level. I reached out to her mother via private message requesting to meet with them to discuss how I might be able help. We met at a Panera just outside of Boston and it’s been nothing but fun ever since. In fact, this is the most fun I’ve had since working at The White House, although there are times it certainly feels winning a Presidential Election is much easier than breaking a new artist,” said Jeff Gulko, Jessie’s Manager.
Jessie Chris, the victim of extreme bullying when she was younger, has made promoting an anti-bullying platform a major element of her career has visited more than 75 schools already and is scheduled to visit 100 middle schools in 2018 to share with the students her experiences with hopes of helping those that might be suffering as well.
