Meet Jess + Lawson

(aka your future favourite wedding soundtrack duo)

What happens when a soulful songbird and a multi-instrumental music wizard bond over coffee, harmonies, and great tunes? You get Jess + Lawson — a dreamy musical pairing and one seriously talented duo who know how to set the perfect mood for your big day.

​

Jess is Melbourne born and bred — raised in a home where music wasn’t just encouraged, it was practically the family language. (Mum’s a music teacher, Dad’s a sound engineer. Enough said.) With a voice that’s equal parts velvet and sparkle, and some serious piano/keyboard skills to match, Jess has a knack for making people pause mid-conversation just to listen.

​

Lawson? He’s the kind of musician who can pretty much play anything with strings, and probably a few things without. A go-to session guitarist and bassist for some of Melbourne’s top-tier wedding bands and original acts, he brings polished finesse and swoon-worthy vocal harmonies to the mix.

​

Together, they create a sound that’s lush, heartfelt, and completely swoonable — Jess’s soaring lead vocals and Lawson’s warm harmonies wrapped in layers of keys and acoustic guitar. Whether it’s setting the tone for a romantic ceremony or keeping things cruisy and joyful into the night, Jess + Lawson bring the magic.

​

Available as a duo, Jess solo, or with a Paper Hearts DJ for our ever-popular Duo/DJ combo, they’re ready to take your guests on a musical journey from first arrival to final dance.
