Soul Sista's Juke Joint: The Return

About Me


Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™ is an evening highlighting local, upcoming and independent female artists from all over the country.

Reminiscent of the juke joints, blues and jazz houses of the 50's and 60's, Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™ will take you back in time...
Imagine walking into an establishment reminiscent of a Smoky Joe's Café or an Apollo Theatre tucked back in an alley way. The sultry sounds could be heard a mile away, and the tunes became your company, while the horn section drew you closer and closer as you hurried deeper into the woods. When you finally arrived, and opened the door, the energy embraced you, and escorted you to a seat, where you saw a diva singing her heart out to a group of hip sisters and brothers. Scatting and singing and pouring out her soul. You looked around to see that folks were just having a good time. Mesmerized by the vocal power of women.
Welcome to Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™, a unique evening held bi-weekly exposing the talents of local and upcoming female artists, musicians and poets. A fusion of jazz, blues, house, folk, operatic, and acoustic soul. From Diane Schuur to Michelle N'degeocello, Ella Fitzgerald to Jill Scott . Where Nikki Giovanni meets Maysa Leek, where folk music meets jazz, where ragtime music meets house music, house meets trip hop and all that in between. Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™ is where it can be seen. Soul Sista’s Juke Joint has showcased over 150 solo artists, poets, bands, visual artists, small businesses, and/or musicians, to date.
Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™ is an art movement in itself. It is a fusion of all artistic genres in a very unique way. Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™ will focus on the talents of local female artists in Atlanta, NY, Philadelphia, California, DC, Chicago, and wherever we can locate “sistas” with soul. Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™ will take place in Atlanta, one of the major areas for underground and soul music. We will combine, create and disseminate a message of peace and love through art and music in a way that hasn't been captured in a since the days of Billie Holiday, Janis Joplin, Nina Simone, Anita O’day, Shirley Horn, Moms Mabley, and all of the great female art legends. It is long overdue and well awaited for.
Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™ mission is to elevate human consciousness through art, culture, music and the diverse power of women. Our secondary mission surrounds sisterhood: creating and restoring positive images about the strength of women, our diversity, our differences and our respective cultures. Art, culture and music comprise some of the greatest gifts known in human existence.
Soul Sista’s Juke Joint™ will provide a nurturing space for independent and upcoming female artists to spread their wings. As a vehicle, this Harlem Renaissance inspired evening will touch the hearts and souls of the young, the old and the in between.
