Jessica Braithwaite lights up the airwaves across Australia with her bubbly TV weather presenting and catchy songwriting.
The award winning writer has a background in meteorology, presents weather for the Nine Network and pens articles for national travel magazines, lifestyle pages and women's websites.
Her pop ballad Who You Know made no. 1 on the AMRAP radio charts, and her Christmas tune 'I Still Get Excited For Christmas' made no. 5 on the Australian iTunes charts. This led the Daily Mail to crown Jessica the "Queen of Christmas".
A big supporter of the indie music scene, Jessica has hosted the Australian Independent Music awards with Dylan Lewis since 2020.
Jessica hasn't exactly followed the standard path of an entertainer. At the age of 20, she moved to Chile, penning songs in Spanish and hanging out at neighbourhood guitar parties.
She later lived in South Africa teaching music to kids at a remote orphanage while volunteering at a health clinic.
Back in Australia, Jessica fronted her indie band Gemini Downs, playing festivals including the Big Day Out and supporting some of the country’s biggest names.
Now, Jessica delivers a dose of sunshine when she beams into our lounge rooms each night as a weather presenter for Channel Nine.
She is also a proud ambassador for Save The Children.
Jessica grew up in the South Australian border town of Mount Gambier and spent her childhood chasing rabbits in the neighbour's paddock and whizzing down hills on her big brother’s home made go-kart.
And no, she’s no related to Daryl. Unless she’s had a couple of beers.
