Jaedynn Latter hails from Huntington Beach, CA. A proud Filipino-Jewish artist, she is so grateful to further her crafts as a junior Music Theatre major at Baldwin Wallace University. Starting musical theatre at the age of 7 at the Boys and Girls Club, the magic of live performance will always hold a special place in Jaedynn's heart, even as her career endeavors stem in other areas. In addition to stage acting, Jaedynn is working constantly to venture into songwriting, audio production, scriptwriting, acting for the screen, and even directing. She has always held an interest in careers on both sides of the table, as performer and facilitator, and has every intention of making all those aspirations come true.
Back in California, Jaedynn went to high school at the Huntington Beach Academy for the Performing Arts. She won the Spirit of the Macy Best Actress Award in 2021 for her performance as Bea in Something Rotten!, as well as winning a Musical Theatre West Footlighters Scholarship and placing as a semi-finalist for the LA Music Center Spotlight competition. Coming to Baldwin Wallace, Jaedynn made her professional theatrical debut with Great Lakes Theater and Idaho Shakespeare Festival, in addition to performing a number of regional shows in Downtown Cleveland. In December of 2022, she was hands-on as an assistant set dresser for the annual holiday tour on the Warner Bros. lot, specifically helping reviving the set of Gilmore Girls. And somewhere along the way, many moons ago, Jaedynn found her way to music.
In elementary school, she wrote her first songs in a Hello Kitty notebook. Then it became the spiral notebooks for school. Then journals. Then the Notes app. Then Google Drive. By the time Jaedynn graduated high school, she had written over 300 songs. When school shut down her junior year because of COVID, she finally opened GarageBand and started making recordings of her songs. After she graduated, Jaedynn upgraded to Logic Pro, and her music production journey has been on fire ever since. Quite literally every day, Jaedynn either writes new songs or produces them, and this constant practice has been her true passion project.
Her debut singles, "Why Does It Feel Like...?" and "Stay the Fuck Away" are out now on all platforms — and more is coming just around the corner!
"POINT OF YOU" OUT EVERYWHERE NOW
Theatre, despite it having been my oldest pursuit, is still the one that I find the most experimental.
Everything I do — every song I write, every image I produce, even every outfit I wear is undeniably in my own voice. It is important to me to create art that empowers me and fulfills my sense of purpose.
