About Me

jerilynn was born in Moose Jaw Saskatchawan had the pleasure of living in different cities across Canada.Currently she calls East Vancouver her home. Over the last few years she has been greatly involved with the Urban Native community in the city and she has a passion for youth participation and youth voice. Jerilynn recently returned from a one year stint in Toronto where she attended the Centre for Indigineous Theatre. Now she's ready to give back to her Community with the skills she has learned through theatre.
so she is super busy, she is all about "USING your voice". expression is her life's work to express and help others find their expresion. through Music, movement, voice, visual art, perfromance art. Music is my first love. WORDS ARE HER OBESSION, and the MIC is her Wife. Theatre is my second love. BOTH are dreams I'm following to the ends of the universe.

Jerilynn is triple threat as an Emcee, Actor and Director. She is 21 years old, and hails from the Nuxalk and Cayuga Nations. She is an advocate for youth voice and expression through involvement with her community for the Last 5 years. Sitting on boards with organizations such as the Urban Native Youth Association (UNYA) and the Urban Multipurpose Aboriginal Youth Council (UMAYC), and developing theatre productions with native youth in east Vancouver serves to give a voice to urban aboriginal youth issues. Jerilynn just got back from her formal training at the Centre for Indigenous Theatre in Toronto.

"Using my words to go upwards/ not backwards" are lyrics that describes what JB trys to convey in her music. Hip Hop is her choosen avenue of expression. Lyrically motivated music with depth, meaning, positivity like none other. Add that with some memorable hooks and hot beats, then you have JB the Firstlady's Music. Also she likely the first lady you'll every see b-boxing (making beats with her mounth)
