Hailing from Queens New York, GIRL WUNDER (Jessica Wu) brings a fresh style to the electronic music scene. She nods to both the old and new school crowd, and enjoys bringing sounds across multiple genres to give something to everyone on the dancefloor. Her ability to generate special and memorable performances is what makes her a coveted new artist in the music industry.

Originally brought up in classical music at the age of 4 on piano, and then flute at age 11, Girl Wunder has always been an avid musician. She had reached notable achievements at a young age, placing in both the competitive New York State All-County and All-State Orchestras. She has had the privilege of performing at renowned Carnegie Hall 4 years in a row by the age of 17 on flute.

Meanwhile, Girl Wunder's introduction into electronic music began with her sister who was a promoter for many legendary clubs such as Webster Hall, Pascha NYC, Tunnel and Club Exit, and a prominent influencer amongst the asian bboy/bgirl raver crews. Girl Wunder's early collection of digital music began as her sister would bring home tracks and exclusive recordings from the DJs at those parties. Her discovery of Miss Kittin, Green Velvet, Acid Girl, Prodigy, Fatboy Slim and other influential artists of the time opened her mind to a new world of possibility with music as house music and the genre of techno was making a head in NYC. Today, as a DJ with an ear for complex melodies through her classical training, a love for acoustic instrumentation, and an early exposure to 90s rave culture, Girl Wunder attempts to combine elements of all her experiences within the selections in her mixes.
