5:00 pm – Just Jo

Just JoJUST JO is about a girl and her guitar. The guitar is the perfect foil for the power, sensuality and feeling behind the vocals. Her song lyrics range from sentimental to serious; the sound from rock to blues and beyond. The cover songs are a unique blend of the unexpected. There is something for everyone – she never disappoints.

Just Jo (Jo-Anne Carlson) is obsessed with music. She grew up in Kingston, Jamaica, surrounded by everything from reggae to Beethoven. Training in classical voice and piano simply fueled her music mania. She sang in choirs throughout her teenage years, and then stumbled upon rock and roll – nuff said!! Jo-Anne is a songwriter and plays acoustic and electric guitar. She performs locally in the Atlanta metro area.
