Bio
Under the snows of Syracuse and the sunny skies of LA, Hans Garon and Jessica Christine have been cultivating a musical partnership that is built to last. While studying classical guitar and voice, respectively, at Syracuse University, the duo experienced a unique creative spark that could not be denied. After graduation, Hans went on to pursue a graduate degree at the prestigious Yale University School of Music, while Jessica travelled across the country to the University of Southern California to earn a degree of her own.
Following a fortunate reunion in November of 2009, Hans and Jessica pooled their rich musical backgrounds into a new project, fueled by their past as best friends and classmates at Syracuse. Pleasure Seekers was born, scrawled on a napkin at El Cholo—the famed Los Angeles Mexican eatery—on a crystalline Californian night. Since that evening, Pleasure Seekers has been writing, developing, producing and performing original music that cannot quite be defined. It is, in fact, the great intangible that defines the Pleasure Seekers’ method of operation; to share their experiences and zest for life through an orgiastic fusion of funk, jazz, R&B, and folk (with a sprinkling of other styles too!). Hans’ versatility as a guitarist and vision for production is at the helm, while Jessica’s sensitive voice and artistic whimsy plays counterpoint.
Hans and Jessica strive to take listeners on a unique musical journey with each new song they release. Stemming from their extensive travels, many Pleasure Seekers songs express a deep love for all things natural. Most recently, their single, “The Mountains Are Calling,” (inspired by the scenery of Yosemite Nat’l Park and a quote by naturalist John Muir) was featured on SongDoor TV—an industry staple for singer/songwriters and producers. Current projects include the upcoming release of their debut album, as well as the release of singles in a variety of styles. The Pleasure Seekers’ credo is a simple, yet potent one—to celebrate life through music and love.
