Jaleesa

At just 11 years old, Jaleesa entered the professional music industry after winning the danish version of Star Search. After years of lending her voice to other artists as a backup singer, Jaleesa is now stepping confidently into the spotlight again.

Emerging from a unique blend of cultures and life experiences, singer-songwriter Jaleesa is not just a voice you hear but a voice you feel. Rooted in soul music, Jaleesa draws inspiration from the emotive power of 1970s Italian film scores, infused with elements of neo-soul and jazz. In collaboration with producer Christoffer Holm Clausen, she has created an organic and distinctive sound that is truly unforgettable and her warm, honest and powerful vocals convey both vulnerability and resilience.

Her upcoming album 'Sodalite' represents a deep sense of personal liberation – representing her growth as both an artist and a person. Through her music, she explores her identity as a racialized woman, touching on political and personal themes, always with an undercurrent of sincerity and connection to life’s deeper currents, in hopes that her music inspires others to stay true to their own journeys and connect with the world around them.
