Dom Jones, from Oakland, CA, is an artist and creative entrepreneur. The Founder and Principal Artist at Dom Empire, she weaves her passion for music, media, and social justice through various projects. An International Songwriting Competition Winner in 2014, Dom released her first album, Wingspan, that same year. She graduated from Berklee College of Music in 2019 as a dual major in Songwriting and Music Business. Her music has been lauded as a beacon for social change through recognition from Berklee’s Songs for Social Change, BAMS Fest, and she is a 2019 Composer for the Hear Her Song project. Dom’s recent single, “Crazytown,” was featured in the 2020 Grammy U Conference by the Recording Academy. She is a 2020 Bakanal de Afrique Artist Fellow and will produce a new musical body of work to be presented at the Virtual Afro Urban Fesival in November 2020.
Dom Jones weaves social justice issues into messages of healing, meant to serve as alchemy, healing the masses. Her original song "Heaven" is no different, discussing a better tomorrow just beyond humanity's fingertips, if it would only embrace its differences and heal its land.
