Jo-Anne Carlson
Just 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.
Aire Flamenco
AIRE Flamenco brings the excitement of flamenco to the stage through guitar, song and dance. Audiences journey through the highs and lows of the human spirit, as performers exchange talents, exposing joy, sadness, anger and other emotions – and wrap it all up with rhythmic hand clapping and infectious shouts of “ole!” Dancers intertwine swirling hands and staccato footwork with fluid Spanish song lyrics, while the guitar provides a melodic undertone etched by Moorish, Arabic, Jewish and African influences.
AIRE Flamenco’s shows are dynamic and improvisational, each created in the moment by performers fully engaged with one another through art. This style of flamenco performance has earned AIRE Flamenco a reputation for high quality among audiences, clients and arts professionals.
With decades of experience as professional performers, members of AIRE Flamenco provide turn-key performances that are flexible and creative. They have performed before audiences in venues as small as Cuerno Restaurant in Midtown, Atlanta, and as large as the Georgia Aquarium, Biltmore Estates, and Georgia World Convention Center. No stage is too small, no audience too large, for this group simply enjoys creating performances together.
