Endorse Tess Stevens
Working with Tess has been a great experience. She brings a rare mix of raw talent, creativity, and professionalism to every song. Her vocals are authentic and powerful — perfect for rock, punk, or anything needing that extra edge. On top of that, her topline work is incredible, with a great sense of melody and phrasing that makes a track really stand out. Tess is also super easy to collaborate with and you can tell that she genuinely cares. If you're looking to bring real personality and skill to your project, Tess is a fantastic choice!
I've had the pleasure of working with Tess on multiple sessions, and she has consistently been professional, communicative, and outstanding in her vocal performance.
A true wordsmith, Tess crafts lyrics that tell captivating stories, seamlessly translating experiences into powerful musical compositions with creativity and depth.
I highly recommend working with Tess, our community truly benefits from having more artists like her.
