Now Wave presents: Jessica BonBon Jessica BonBon is an alt pop folk artists based in Manchester, England. Having spent over a decade leading the indie-pop band Peaness, Jessica sets out to create a new world for herself in a calm, contemporary and reflective solo project. Her debut EP "The Lights Are out Another Week" (Dec 2024) was met with authentic praise despite its subtle and quiet self release, and caught the attention of radio DJs nationwide While only appearing live once for a charity fundraising event for her housemate's cancer treatment in 2025, the concert at Deaf Institute, Manchester, became a highlight of the event and prompted her to think twice about the project being for recordings only. In Spring 2026, Jessica, along with long time producer and dear friend Joel Anthony Patchett, began working on a large collection of songs with the intention of completing an albums worth of material. The first to be released from this timeline is "Abeeku", a single about her previously mentioned housemate who sadly died in Aug 2025. The song draws on memories shared in their home, and the loss that followed. To honour the single, and the year that has passed, Jessica has formed an accompanying band and will be performing a handful of small shows in London, Manchester and Paris.
