Gloria Jessica


Gloria Jessica is an Indonesian singer-songwriter of Batak descent. She was one of the contestants of the second season of The Voice Indonesia, broadcast by the national television station RCTI. She started gaining public attention after performing her rendition of Coldplay's "A Sky Full of Stars" in the knockout round of the singing contest. On YouTube, the video of the performance made its way to the very top of nationally "trending" videos and held its position there for more than a week.
In the same year, she signed with Universal Music Indonesia. Her fifth single, "Hold On", is the first one fully in English and written by herself in collaboration with Joseph Saryuf of Santamonica and Direct Action. "Buka Mata", released in 2019, is also a product of their collaboration. The following year saw Gloria working with American musicians Kyle Patrick and Jesse Ruben, resulting in the single "Still Worth Loving". In 2021, "Berlalu" was released. The song was produced by a trio of prominent Indonesian musicians/producers: Widi Puradiredja of Maliq & D'Essentials, Kimo Rizky of Kimokal, and Joseph Saryuf.
Gloria received the award for "Best New Artiste " in the 2017 edition of Anugerah Planet Muzik, an event appreciating Malay musicians from Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. Two of her singles have been nominated in Anugerah Musik Indonesia, the Indonesian version of the Grammy Awards.
