In a press release for the event, Jessica admitted she can’t wait to perform live again and thinks the atmosphere will rival any festival.
‘Festivals create a unity of energy that is unlike any other feeling. We are thinking outside the box to make sure we can all still give an experience of live music to our fans during these times,’ she said.
‘A drive-in concert sounded like our perfect night. Get your friends together, great snacks, blankets, comfy seats and great weather is a guarantee,’ she added.
