Precious Jewel: http://linktr.ee/PreciousJewel222 Precious Jewel is a songstress hailing from the sea boardered city of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Currently Residing in DC has allowed her to find love and community whilst sharing her melodic gems throughout the neighboring cities. She intends to blend the generational traditions of soul, r&b, hiphop and jazz with newfound innovation inspired by the poetic irony that life draws. She prides herself in gifting a unique live experience often with a band of equally passionate musicians by her side. She’s been described as a calm amongst the storm, able to quiet audiences and bring them to an intimate attention toward melodies of intimacy, self reflection, reckoning and affirmation Hollings: hollingsmusic.com Hollings began her musical journey singing in the forests of her backyard in Georgia at the age of 5. She trained in choirs and attended a performing arts high school in Atlanta, which eventually led to performing alongside Josh Groban. At 19, she co-founded her first band, Beat the Grid—a dance-rock blend of funk, afrobeat, and jazz—with cellist/producer Daniel Frankhuizen and other Ithaca College musicians. Their debut album was released in 2013 and promoted by AAM, Inc. The band lived and performed in NYC from 2012-2015. For the past seven years, Hollings has regularly performed with a variety of rock, electronic, and reggae projects, such as Double Tiger and The Crucials (featuring members of John Brown’s Body and Jimkata). She has also contributed vocals to electronic and hip-hop tracks by artists such as Ethereal, Made Groceries, and Glass Meadow, and was featured on soundscape artist Nathan Moody's album A Shadow No Light Could Make.
