Professional Bio
Jme Medina is a Christian Artist/Songwriter & speaker born and raised in the city known for its sin- Las Vegas, NV, but now currently resides in a city known for its music (Nashville, TN area). Despite having to face obstacles of growing up surrounded by poverty, drugs, violence, foster homes and the like; nothing has stopped this jewel from letting her light shine in the darkness.
Jme has an anointing that few artists display. With songs that can make your head bounce, to songs that draw you into God's presence, her time spent with an audience ushers in an experience between them and God. She is driven with a passion to inspire people to pursue a deeply intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. Spending any amount of time with her or her music will leave a lasting impression on your heart. When asked why she chose to do Christian music as opposed to any other genre, she responds:
"I realize that the only thing that matters in this life is what we do for and with God. I don't have time to waste on singing or writing songs that don't glorify or honor him. I want to invest in things that last for eternity. I don't want to show up empty hearted or handed when my time comes to stand before God's throne and he asks what I did with the gifts he gave me. So here I am. Ready and willing to go where I am called! If I can be used to plant even the smallest of seeds to help encourage a person to grow in their faith and walk with the Lord, or to help show someone in darkness the light, then its all worth it."
Jme's debut CD "Lay It Down" was produced by highly acclaimed artist/producer John Katina of The Katinas, Kene "Ghost" Bell (Stacie Orrico, Out of Eden, Grits, etc), David Rogers (Baby Bash, Nino Brown, Remnant), and the late Jerome Jefferson. Writers on the album include Jme Medina, John Katina, James Katina, Sharee Katina, Kene Bell, and Chris Faulk (Jaci Velasquez, The Katinas, Amy Grant..).
Jme digitally released her second CD Dear Jesus" on July 5th, 2013, and it will physically release to the public on Sept 14th, 2013! It was produced 5 time Dove Award Nominee and Producer Victor "Liquid" Oquendo(Toby Mac, Julissa, Out of Eden, Grits, Dj Maj, John Reuben, MTV, The WB's, America's Top Model,Petey Pablo, Liquid, etc...) and also had some production by David Browning (Natalie Grant), and Grammy award winner Richie Pena.
She has shared the stage with artists such as: Newsboys, The Afters, Jamie Grace, Aaron Schust, Natalie Grant, The Katinas, Unspoken, Zoe girl, Jaci Velasquez, Casting Crowns, Danity Kane, Tammy Trent, Russ Lee, Kara, The Godkinz, Paul Wright, Unspoken, Seventh time Down, Everyday Sunday, Mercy Me, Chris Tomlin, Petra, Rachael Lampa, Brandon Heath, Amy Grant, Stellar Kart, Salvador, Grits, Barlow Girl,2-Five, KJ-52, Hawk Nelson, Ricki B, Prime Minister, Mandisa (American Idol), Brock Gill, Starfield, Kirk Franklin, Israel Houghton (w/Remnant), Ashanti, and many others.
Here is an excerpt from an interview with Jme on her beginning in music:
"Early on, after many years of singing and leading worship for youth groups and churches, joining choirs, talent shows, and practicing song writing, Jme was given the opportunity to start her Professional music career as a part of the group "Remnant" under the management of former NFL quarterback - turned Christian Pastor Randall Cunningham.
"Randall was a significant part of my journey in the beginning. I started out by going to his bible studies and we formed a mentor type relationship. He believed in me and the gifts the Lord had given me and helped me to create my first song demo, which in turn, opened the doors to working on a full record. I began going from church to church in Las Vegas asking to sing and minister, and God kept building it up from there....it was like a snowball of faith. I took one step, if God opened the door, then I kept going. If he shut the door, I tried another. I never set out to be a "famous" singer or songwriter, just a messenger for the famous God. I literally took the book of Proverbs and used it as a decision making map when it came to music and my life. I wanted to do great things for Him, even if no one knew about it. "
Soon after Jme's reputation among her community grew through years of events and relationship building, the demand for a full CD came into light.
"I had met Sam and John Katina backstage at an event I was volunteering for, and gave them my 1 song unprofessional demo. Not long after, they agreed they would be a part of birthing my first CD 'Lay It Down.' After that moment, God began putting me in places and performing with people I never imagined I'd share a stage with-including them." I felt so undeserving of such a blessing because I know who I am without Christ, and it isn't a pretty picture. I didn't want God's glory, I just wanted to be used by Him, and it was difficult for me to believe He would choose to use someone like me. Then I realized after experience, that we are all on the same field as eachother when it comes to God's people. No one is above another, and we are all servants.
Throughout this experience, He has been more than faithful, and has reminded me that we can do nothing apart from Him, but what He can do through a life that is willing and accepting of His mercy and grace is mind blowing. What a privilege to serve a King who owns it all."
Jme was also featured as LATIN ARTIST SPOTLIGHT for Christian Activities Magazine (Nashville, TN) and was nominated for best new Positive/Christian Artist for the LAS VEGAS Music Awards.
Jme's heart and vision has much to do with her life experience and desire to encourage, inspire, and edify the body of Christ, as well as reach the lost. She attracts a widely diverse audience because of her music style, and significantly because of her personal interaction and relationships with people.
Her ministry is especially effective for youth and families. She normally travels with her band.

"Youth Pastor Eric and Tamyra Morris
Gphi Nation/Word of Faith Christian Center Nashville, TN
http://www.wofcc-nash.org/
When I reflect on the ministry and heart for worship that Jme Medina has been anointed with, I stand in awe. She has blessed our Youth Ministry at Word Of Faith Christian Center Nashville on multiple occasions, each time leaving a lasting impression. We are not talking about a worship leader who can just sing, but one who has a heart for worship. Not only a songstress, Jme is a very capable exhorter. Before every song there is a scripture read and an exhortation shared with those in attendance. Biblical foundation is set for every song and worship of the true and living God erupts as a result. Every time Jme came to lead worship for us, it was not just a special music minister coming, but a worship experience waiting to happen. Jesus was exalted each and every time. We were pointed to, and ushered into the very presence of God. It got to the point where youth were filling the altar to overflowing, falling to their knees, and crying out for more of God. When I would mention Jme coming in to lead us for Praise and Worship our youth would light up and know to come expecting to enter into the depths of the inner court of the Lord.
Jme as a person has been such a blessing to my wife Tamyra and I. She is always willing to help with anything we need for youth ministry, and seriously searches for ways to bless our youth. We work together at the same company and Jme is always smiling and filled with the Joy of the Lord. It is one thing to see a person one Sunday out of a month every few months but another to see that same person daily at work. Jme displays the same joy, working in the corporate world as she has ministering in song. That type of consistency is rare and refreshing today. Jme Medina has proven by the fruit of her life that she is not only an anointed worship leader but even more so a firmly rooted believer of Jesus Christ, prayer warrior, and dear friend. My wife and I are honored not only to be co-laborers for the spreading of the Gospel of Christ but also to call her a dear friend.
