Lessia Bonn has
been penning songs for and producing gifted young singers
for many years. On her roster; Viva Gore--daughter of Martin
Gore of Depeche Mode, Jessie Bridges--daughter of
actor, Jeff, and Rachel Sand, a young actor sharing a
manager with Hillary Duff. Lessia recently served as
songwriting/producing consultant helping create the
award-winning rock band Loomis and the Lust (MTV/Billboard
magazine). She has co-produced material alongside Alan
Thicke for Alan's son, R&B singer Robin Thicke. Before
moving to northern California she created, produced and
performed on the popular Santa Barbara TV show
Enlightenment Stew--a delightful mix of campy humor,
deep wisdom and common sense. Alongside Isabelle Bridges
Boesch she co-founded Truth be Told; a mindful music
site for tweens. More info at

For many years,
Lessia served as ringleader to a giant fun-loving teen pop
choir known as Crew. Crew became a "Santa Barbara
phenom" (Montecito Journal). Kids lovingly referred
to Crew as "church" since meet-ups, held every Sunday
morning for years, were more about feeling supported than
singing perfectly. With teens confiding in Lessia daily, she
realized she could make an impact by penning great advice
into no nonsense tunes. "OMG--your songs are so
deep--they're saving my life!" Her
www.VocalsByLocals.com website was born as Crew alumni began recording in a
Montecito shack. Lessia's VBL song site has now
become a resource for Girl's Inc, progressive schools
and other producers and recording artists throughout the
States. Her highly original material wisdom-packed material
is masterfully crafted--full of whimsical surprises, tons of
heart and take-no-prisoners humor. It inspires teens to be
their best self with thought-provoking empowering hooks
especially great for bully-proofing.

to help students stand tall.
