Jesika Von Rabbit

Formerly the frontwoman and chief songwriter of the successful and iconic Joshua Tree act Gram Rabbit, von Rabbit has released two critically lauded solo albums, Journey Mitchell and Dessert Rock, along with a bevy of singles and visually arresting videos.

Mind-bending, sexy, weird, medicated, and endearing, von Rabbit’s art is a blast of candy cane shrapnel full of utter madness, brilliance, and complexity. Intelligent and whimsical, vulnerable and sarcastic, ironic and riotous, her lyrical content is one of the observer, the questioner, and the contrarian. Yet at heart, she’s a pop artist, one with the guts to take musical risks you wished that Top 40 pop princesses had the guts to make.
Von Rabbit has toured with the Eagles of Death Metal, and has performed at the Desert Daze, Camper van Beethoven’s Campout Festival, Joshua Tree Music Festival, Stoned and Dusted Festival, Tiki Oasis, as well as San Francisco, Portland, and Palm Springs Pride. She has shared stages with acts as diverse as Wanda Jackson, Cat Power, and The Crystal Method. Dubbed “The Queen of the Hi-Desert,” Jesika is the torchbearer of the ever-vibrant Hi-Desert music scene.

Jesika von Rabbit’s original compositions have been licensed to Fox’s The Masked Singer for a commercial spot, CSI, NBC’s Life, FX’s Better Things, The Real World, Sons of Anarchy, Crash, Hit & Miss, Crazy Stupid Love and War Inc., Grace and Frankie, a commercial spot for Fruit of the Loom which aired during the 2012 Summer Olympics, and Morgan Freeman’s film 57 Seconds to name a few.
