About He Said She Said
A fun, entertaining duo from the small Grey/Bruce County area, Shane and Jess teamed up in 2020, to collaborate on original music and to have fun playing covers.
What seperates this musical duet from most, is they play to wonderful backing tracks, making it feel like a "full band" is present. This allows the musical couple to perform at small pubs or private parties, to larger venues and dances.
Shane comes from a rock background being in many bands over the years. Coaching for Sara, Boondoggle, The Ultrasounds to name a few.
Jess is a theatrical singer being in many musicals with Hanover, Community Players, has worked with the Grey/Bruce Singers Choir and was the lead/front woman in the band, Dragonfly covering many old classics, such as Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, and Etta James.
When Shane first heard Jess sing, he was very impressed with her range and beautiful clarity. Shane had previously written some material that didn't quite fit his rock genre and realized Jess' voice was a perfect fit.
In October of 2020, Shane approached Jess with his ideas and she excitedly joined forces with him. Since then they have worked hard on their craft and have become best friends, as it shows in their acoustic videos and live performances.
Shane and Jess have been working the live circuit since they've met, and continue to look for new and exciting venues, while continuing to play for their main clients. He Said, She Said have released 4 original singles, "Time Well Spent", Butterfly Lullaby", "My Everything" and "Interlude" with their fifth single to be released soon.
The Duo have played all over South-Western Ontario during their career, and plan on reaching out further with their diverse musical prowess, while continueing writing origianl pieces of work.

He Said About Jess
Jess started her career as a singer at a very young age. If it wasn’t at church, it was performing with her sister for her parents or people who just came over for a visit.
She has had both voice and piano lessons and found that singing is her true love.
In grade 8 she won the award for musician of the year, and later became the vocal lead of her high school band.
Acting is also one of Jess' passions which has brought her to some lead rolls in plays and musicals, one being Rose Alvarez in Bye-bye Birdie, and more recently as the lead role of Maria, in the production of "The Sound of Music". Being able to act and sing has really helped Jess come out of her shell and has given her confidence while performing.
She really enjoys writing original material with Shane, and finds it quite thrilling. Music is most certainly one of the greatest joys in her life along with her awesome children and amazing friends who support her in all that she takes on.
