Who is Jessi Frey in her own words?
“So what do I know about being a rockstar? Well a lot as it happens. I’ve actually been one for real.
I grew up in the 80’s in a small town in Finland watching MTV. Just like many other teenagers, I dreamed of one day becoming a rockstar myself. The only difference was, I meant it.
I tried studying music, but I soon realised that skills alone were not going to get me where I wanted. I didn’t want to become a musician, I wanted to become a rockstar!.
I stopped comparing myself to others and started to develop something that was uniquely mine. I stopped wishing that I had what others did and I started my own band Velcra. I stopped hoping that someone would discover me, and give me a chance, and started to build my own audience.
Soon after that, things changed and it took us only a year to get signed to Virgin Records. We made three albums and eight music videos. We toured Europe and I got to experience the whole rockstar thing. I also got my first taste of entrepreneurship when we started our own indie label and production company.
After almost a decade in the music business, I started to feel like it was time to move on. I quit everything and moved to the UK. I left music behind and focused fully on my passion for online business.” Intrigued and want to know more? Visit jessifrey.com.
