Thursday, June 13,
7pmJosephine Johnson, Americana Folk Josephine Johnson arrived in
Northern California via Greentown, Indiana; Savannah,
Georgia; Laos and China. She's a traveler, songwriter,
artist, and English teacher, who finds words and
melody her favorite means of expression. To
create is to be is to embrace is to love is to
breathe. Her music speaks of love, loss, triumph and
return through subtle story telling and a tapestry of
outdoor imagery. She can sing you to enchanted
lightning bug meadows, to the hearts of street
families, and to rise up from the ocean. With
attention to melody and word, Josephine gets you
there. In 2011, Josephine Johnson was voted
Humboldt County’s best solo musical act by the readers
of the North Coast Journal. Joanne Trzcinski, pianist and jazz vocalist, is a fresh addition to the Oregon Willamette Valley music scene. Although a local to the area now, she brings a touch of her back east urban roots to the Willamette Valley. She has performed jazz standards and originals at local wineries, eateries and special events over the past few years. Her first CD, White Shirt Black Suit, was recorded with an ensemble of jazz musicians, two of which are her own family members and released a year ago. Joanne's vocals are smooth and dreamy and her "easy listening" musical style makes her music enjoyable to audiences of any age.
