Vanessa Jones

Vanessa Jones is a Maine-based singer/songwriter, violinist, multi-instrumentalist, freelance musician, studio musician, and recording artist.

Vanessa began her musical journey at the age of six, with violin lessons. As she developed musically, she performed with a variety of youth orchestras and classical ensembles throughout her childhood and into her teenaged years. Vanessa then put herself through college by playing at weddings on weekends with a string ensemble, and teaching violin and piano lessons during the week.

As an adult, Vanessa has performed with a startling variety of bands, from jazz, to punk, country, Celtic, rock, classical, Americana/folk, choral, theatre, blues, alternative, and beyond. 

Now as a prolific songwriter, Vanessa finds her musical home in the vein of Americana music, feeling most fulfilled when surround by her happy little collection of folk instruments. She enjoys bringing sparkle to the human experience through songs based in honesty, imagery, truth, pain, and love.
