About Me

I started at the age of six with little improvisation songs behind the piano and staring out of the window. It was at the age of 12 when I discovered the songs of Billie Holiday. My sister bought this lyrics book and I was hooked. She never got the chance to get it back...Ofcourse it's much cooler to play the saxophone when you're 14 than it is to play the piano. So for a few years I played sax in a bigband (jazz) and even for a while in a pop and reggae band.But now I'm back into singing and playing easy listening jazz and a little songwriting. For now an impression of my music.....Johanna
