A Little Bit About Me
Coming from a background of West End Musicals I can guarantee you the ultimate in top class and high end entertainment.
Are you looking for an unforgettable WEDDING SINGER who will serenade, entertain and get the party going? A sassy CABARET SINGER to perform a tailor made show to your guests at your anniversary or birthday party? A JAZZ SINGER who will create the perfect ambience at a stylish event? A PARTY SINGER to get your crowd up on their feet and dancing the night away?... Maybe you need some special and different entertainment for a Ladies' Night, a Corporate Event, a Ball, Bar Mitzvah or Dinner Dance ... Look no further!
Not only that but I also offer singing lessons and workshops and run a fabulous Musical Theatre choir.
I am based in Chelmsford, Essex and am happy to travel to London, Kent, Suffolk, Hertfordshire and surrounding areas.
You can book Joanna to perform at your BIRTHDAY PARTY, sing at your PRIVATE EVENT, serenade you at your WEDDING, entertain your residents at your CARE HOME, host your NEW YEAR'S EVE, make your LADIES NIGHT one to remember or even theme an evening specifically for your requirements!
If you're looking for some stylish entertainment with some fun and flair thrown in, then look no further! Jo performs her own solo act, which has been seen all over the country and in every type of venue from restaurants, hotels and theatres to bandstands, castles and living rooms! She can offer you a spectacular entertainment package whether accompanied by the magnificent Tony Award winner Sarah Travis, singing along to top quality backing tracks or performing with her 6 piece 60s party band, Ready Steady Go.
Specialising in Musical Theatre, she can bring something very different to an event. Classics from Les Mis, Cabaret, Oliver or Chicago, jazz standards by the amazing George Gershwin and Rodgers and Hart - Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James and Peggy Lee, Motown hits, cheesy favourites from the 80s! Adele and Lady Gaga ... her professional training and 30 years experience on stage not only means she is one of the most versatile singers you will hear, but gives her that edge that only a West End Actress could have.
She has a dynamic and theatrical presence which is perfect for dinner cabaret entertainment but her "chocolatey" voice will also blend beautifully into a background scenario should that be required. With a warm and friendly personality she is excellent at connecting with a crowd and getting a party going. Ideal entertainment for weddings, parties, dinner cabaret, restaurants, corporate, golf clubs and private functions.
Jo's Musical Director is none other than the incredible Tony Award winner, Sarah Travis. Jo and Sarah have been performing together for many years, and when something extra special is required for an event, these two girls can be hired together. With Sarah's spectacular talent on keyboard, Jo's dynamic vocals and the warm bond of their longstanding friendship, they are a force to be reckoned with!
