About Jo
​
What made me fall in love with jazz? Maybe it was a father who blasted Benny Goodman, Cootie Williams and Julie London from vinyl on an old console stereo. Maybe it's traveling the world and soaking up all kinds of rhythms through my bones. Maybe it's having a design background and being fascinated with how everything - including songs - are built. Or maybe it's being a natural-born storyteller and loving to lift up my voice and let it fly, telling great stories through music.
Whatever it was, I'm entirely smitten.
