j. rees bio

the queer southern swamp bard

hailing from the crossroads of hammond, louisiana, j. rees is a creative force of nature. the southern queer creative is a professional writer, musician, and visual artist with ten years of performance experience under their belt. a prolific singer-songwriter, rees has learned to harness the power of both lyrics and melody to create moments of magic that reach in and grab at the heartstrings. influences by the people, places, and happenings that surround them, rees weaves stories into song, spinning acoustic rhythms into worlds of emotion with the use of a uniquely clever, free-flow technique. a gifted poet and lyricist, rees has released two self-published poetry collections (available for online purchase) and is currently working on several other literary projects.

"as of late, my main intention is to move through the world in a way that creates beauty and adds value to the space around me. i i try to make every day an effort of living in a way that brings good to me and others. this blog is a product of that, a means to share and create connections. what's good?! is a reflective tool i aim to use to shift my perspective from negative thought habits into a more positive mentality. this reflection simply requires me to focus on the good around me, and tell its story. what's good?! allows me to share these stories, and bring some good to you.

 

i can't tell you how happy i am to have you here.

​

thank you for tuning in."         

 

      - j. rees
