About Me

Pronounced Jo-well................ Joelle Maddyson is a budding solo artist who sings, plays piano, and writes her own music. Joelle has an exquisite and operatic vocal range, accompanied by beautiful, stark piano melodies. Her songs are acoustic and intimate. She has so far been compared to Sarah Mclachlan, Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush, Tori Amos, and Enya, to name a few. Joelle has played venues such as The Fat Cat Music House & Lounge in Modesto, and The Red Victorian Hotel on San Francisco’s famed Haight Street, among many others. She was also featured on the B93.1 morning buzz show where her song "We Chased Trains" was played and she also did one live song. B93.1 is a very popular radio station in the valley/Modesto area. She has also been played on the CSU Stanislaus college radio station, and her song "Country Road" is being used in a short film called "Forgotten" by Sibry Productions. Joelle was also featured in The Manteca Bulletin newspaper for her stellar performance at Lathrop’s Eureka Coffee & Tea on July 29th, 2007. Make sure to see Joelle Maddyson live in The Central Valley area! Your support is greatly appreciated!

Artist Of The Week ! ON WWW.CENTRALVALLEYMUSICIANS.COM

"Joelle Maddyson is a solo artist who sings, plays piano, and writes all of her own music. Although classically trained in opera she has chosen to pursue her dream of writing and recording music. She has already been featured on B93.1, and has played many shows in and around the Central Valley.
Her songwriting is poignant and extremely personal. Joelle will restore your faith in songwriting, as she is a far cry from the bubble gum pop music that has taken over the industry. She is real and she is sincere." ~www.centralvalleymusicians.com (Artist of The Week, July 13th). Thank you, CVM!!!

Description of my new song from a fan: " 'Falling For You' is so hauntingly beautiful that it put me in a trance. I could do nothing but sit still and listen. I loved it. Keep up the good work. " ~From Savannah in Louisiana~
