Bio

Hello! My Name Is Jodi Ann. I am a songwriter from Nashville,TN. I have been writing music since I was 12 years old. I came through a rough childhood and somehow I managed my feelings in music. I have led a full life with hardly a dull moment. Some of my musical influences came from the wonderful soul of Dolly Parton. She has such a way with words. Alison Krauss, Reba McEntire, and Lorrie Morgan Have also played a major role in my music. Jodi Ann -The Beginning, is my first album. I have songs from my heart, as well as toe tappin' country songs! I am currently working on my second cd titled A Brief Moment in Time. I have never considered myself a singer. It was a shock to me when i started promoting my music and i was labeled as an artist. It was just amazing that people started telling me that they loved my voice! Way Cool! I am hoping to keep in touch with people who love country and bluegrass music. Thank you so much for listening to my music! You make me believe in myself and i just can't thank you enough!

She started to write poems at the age of 12, received her first guitar at age 8, but did not learn to play it until she was 24. Her first songs were poems to guitar noise at 18 that lead her down the road of singer/songwriter. Jodi Ann was a well-known Karaoke DJ in Michigan and was a pre-opening act for Diamond Rio at the 1997 Michigan State fair. Jodi Ann moved to Nashville in October 1998, with her first professional public performance at the famous Tootsies where was was introduced by country legend Dell Reeves. Other performances at the Bluebird Café and around Nashville rounded out a modest start to a potential career. Jodi Ann saw a small break in meeting a singer while waiting tables in Nashville, though those connections she has since recorded her first full length CD, The Beginning, and is currently working on another. She has seen radio airplay in Sydney, Australia with dj Dukerider, in the England area on the Monday mix with Emma Cherry, in Northern Ireland on aiiradio with dj Yorkie and a few various stations across the US!
