She is noted for her evocative and thought-provoking lyrics, and her inventive approach to rhyme. She has been on tour with KT Tunstall and she worked with Johnny Flynn, Helen White, Lightspeed Champion and others.

Jemma Griffiths (born June 18, 1975 in Penarth, nr. Cardiff, Wales), better known as Jem is a Welsh singer-songwriter known for her eclectic musical stylings. Her debut album has defied the categorization of some music critics with a fusion of genres. While some of her songs are straight up rock ballads, some of her tracks verge on electronica and trip-hop. Her throaty, mellow voice draws immediate comparisons to Imogen Heap, Beth Orton, Sophie Barker and to a lesser extent Dido. Along with electronic producer Guy Sigsworth (Björk, Frou Frou), she wrote the song "Nothing Fails", which was later reworked by Madonna and appeared on her 2003 American Life album. I love Jem…

Biography from VH1.com She's the daughter of Arne Naess, former husband of Supreme Diana Ross. Born and raised in England but presently based in New York, Leona Naess is an introspective singer/songwriter whose alternative pop-rock draws on influences ranging from Edie Brickell, Tori Amos and Joni Mitchell to the Cure, David Bowie and Joy Division.

Naess was in her teens when she started singing and writing songs, and she was 18 when she moved to New York to study music and anthropology at New York University. A…
