About Me


Angela Jossy's music


"First night: Angela Jossy is singing Cold Play, and shining!" - Weekly Volcano on Twitter Dec. 31st.
"Angela Jossy did a fantastic job and I especially enjoyed her originals and her cover of Radiohead's Exit Music (For A Film) -- one of the best songs from one of the best albums ever and she nailed it." - Kevin Freitas, FeedTacoma.com after FIRST NIGHT Dec. 31st 2008.
"The chick’s got a set of pipes and showmanship that has more polish than you’d imagine a local act would have. " - Jessica Corey-Butler, Weekly Volcano (now she's with City Arts Magazine)
"Glass Ceiling Music wants to thank Angela Jossy for an incredible performance last night at Oh! Gallaghers in Lakewood. From her selected covers to her heart-filled originals, this young lady captured the crowd and left them wanting more. If you are looking for more than cookie-cutter mainstream over-produced crap, this girl is worth seeing over and over. Thanks again to Angela and all those that continue to support local music." - Travis Orcutt of Glass Ceiling Music
"Angela Jossy sings heartfelt and often personal songs, using her powerful and soulful voice to announce a new presence on the Northwest scene. Jossy's mostly acoustic music builds on traditional pop structures and melodies, providing a platform for an honesty in her voice that rings through each performance; the best parts of Jewel and Sarah McLachlan mixed with the intensity of Alanis and Courtney." - Brian Beckley Bonney Lake/Lake Tapps reporter The Herald
"Angela Jossy writes songs that women can relate to. This music will make you laugh, make you say "Amen" and make you think –- but in a good way." - Seattle PI
"Angela Jossy is a competent songwriter with an airy, pleasant voice. South Puget Sound's answer to Alanis Morrisette, her songs brim with similar young female angsty song themes and lyrical reprimands, both to men and, often more harshly, to herself." - threeimaginarygirls.com
"Angie is a very talented singer/songwriter, but good god, that alone doesn't even come close to describing her ability." - Terry Kuehn, TacomaScene.com
