Performing Saturday, August 7th from 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM:
Jessica Lee


Vocalist Jessica Lee has a unique voice influenced by Jazz, Blues, Rhythm & Blues and Inspirational music.  She performs "Classic," "Contemporary" and "Crossover" Jazz & Blues, and has produced shows with innovative, customized themes 
Jessica's recorded songs have been included on seven international vocal compilation albums through EQ Music record label, and she has recorded four solo albums and is preparing to release several new live recordings.  Ms. Lee is an ASCAP member and continues to write and perform original songs in collaboration with her many creative friends and colleagues.
Jessica sings as a soloist and has also performed Jazz with Symphony Orchestra and Jazz with Big Band, and she performs Inspirational Music with many different types of ensembles.  Jessica Lee is currently working on a "Fusion Street" project exploring Jazz & Blues when fused with music of other genres, including pop, Americana, and world music.
Dedicated to passing the Jazz & American Music art form on to the next generation, Jessica teaches private lessons (Voice & Piano-for-Singers) currently through the private studios and through Sewickley Sweetwater Center for the Arts.  And, she works as a social entrepreneur to start up and accelerates the growth of new performance venues and programs in collaboration with several leading-edge nonprofit organizations. 
Jessica sings from her heart about all aspects of life - of faith, hope, and love.  She often reflects on Mother Teresa's reply when asked why she worked so hard.  Mother Teresa answered simply: "I am a tiny pencil in the hand of a writing God, sending a love letter to the world."  This is Jessica Lee's inspiration and calling - to simply lift people up through vocal music, through song. Jessica will be performing at the AGS Festival on Saturday, August 7th from 6:30 PM – 9:30 PM. 

Thank you Father Joe Codori for bringing these talents to our festival!
