Exciting News and Upcoming Nashville Performances



“Let It All Begin is solid album.  It is an asset to any traditional or modern Country music fan’s record collection.  Joanna stands out as one of Nashville’s brightest female up-and-coming talents…her soaring vocals are reminiscent to those of Country songstress Reba McEntire.” – Markos Papadatos, Examiner.com

Happy Spring almost Summer!

I’m so ready for warmer weather, aren't you? My spring has been very busy and full of opportunity and the summer is looking even better! I just found out I’ve been invited to perform at Fan Fest at the CMA MUSIC FESTIVAL in Nashville! I’m thrilled and very excited! I have two performances scheduled –  on Thursday, June 6th from 5:00pm to 6:00pm  I’ll be at the Bridgestone Glass Tower in concert  sponsored by the Nashville Convention and Visitor's Bureau and on Sunday, June 9th at 2:30pm I'll be performing on the CMA Chevy Acoustic Stage.  If you aren’t familiar with Fan Fest here is a link to a site that can fill you in on everything! http://www.cmaworld.com/cma-music-festival/2013/home.

I recently returned from an action packed trip to Nashville, where I was fortunate enough to be involved in some fund raising charity events and had a chance to do several interviews promoting my new EP, Let It All Begin, and my new single, I Guess That Says It All.

During my trip I had a great time participating in the Christmas 4 Kids Celebrity Golf Tournament. My foursome was with three great ladies who could really hit the ball and they were so much fun to be with!  We had a wonderful time on the links.  This tournament was hosted by the Bluegrass Duo, The Roys, who are incredibly talented and just simply lovely people. It was a great day.



One of the high points of my trip was being the Featured Artist of the Week on Renegade Radio. I did an interview with my good buddy, DJ Captain Jack (who is always great fun) and I want to let Renegade Radio know how much I appreciate their support for my music and my career. Also, thanks for featuring the video of my single, Dream On Savannah, in your “Hot Video Picks.”

One of my interviews during my Nashville trip was with the lovely and talented Kayla Becker for The Kayla Becker Show.  At the end of the interview, she’s included an acoustic video performance of my new single, I Guess That Says It All.  I hope you like it!!!

The trip was wonderful and I got to hang out with some old and new friends in addition to all my interviews and appearances. I love that city – it has such vibrancy and there is music happening everywhere you turn. I can’t wait to return next month!

   

 

That’s all for now! Please let me know if you will be at either of my performances at the CMA Music Festival on June 6th or June 9th – I would love to be able to say hello to you in person!

Thanks, as always, for your support!
Joanna

Hi All,

2013 is starting off very well for me! I have just been added to the featured artist page on Renegade Radio and CMT.com has added my music video for my single, Dream On Savannah, to their site.

RenegadeRadioNashville.com has made history as the first Internet radio station of any genre in the world to receive trade magazine reporting status. Just six short months after their live launch on June 8, 2011, Music Row Magazine named RenegadeRadioNashville.com as the first ever Internet Radio Station to report their weekly playlist. As a reporting station, Renegade joins the Music Row Panel in determining the artists that will top the country music radio charts.

CMT is the leading television and digital authority on country music and lifestyle entertainment. CMT and CMT.com offer an unparalleled mix of music, news, live concerts and series. CMT.com is the top resource for country music on demand.

I simply could not be more thrilled or honored to have my music featured on these two prestigious sites!

I need your Vote!

Hi Everyone,

I hope and pray that everyone has  recovered or is recovering from Hurricane Sandy. It has been a tough 2 weeks for the folks in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, including myself. I know I'm fortunate though compared to some.  

Last week, I e-mailed you to tell you that my new music video was accepted by one of the top music video sites for country music in the United States, GACtv.  Well today, I'm writing you because I just received some incredible news that my video is under consideration to be played on one of the most watched television stations for country music in the United States.  This would be a real game changer for me and my career.  

One of the criteria that will decide whether my video will be played on television is how many people watch my video on GACtv so I am asking if you have a spare moment to please click on to my video link at (GACtvhttp://www.gactv.com/gac/video/?c=5189&videoid=0190755.com) to watch the video. It could make the difference on whether my video makes it to television or not.  Thank you so much for all of your support!!!

 Best,

Joanna

EP Release and Upcoming Video Release




Hi Everybody,

I hope you had a great Labor Day weekend!  

I’m thrilled to announce the release of my new EP, Let It All Begin.   I’m really happy with the six songs on the new EP.  It includes a mix of everything - a couple up-tempo tunes to sing along with as well as those ballad songs that will rip your heart out.

So far the reviews have been great.  I recently did an interview with Markos Papadatos, a writer at the Examiner.  Below is a quote from Markos:

“This album is solid. It is an asset to any traditional or modern country music fan’s record collection. Joanna stands out as one of Nashville’s brightest female up-and-coming talents…her soaring vocals are reminiscent to those of country songstress Reba McEntire.” – The Examiner

My latest single, Dream On Savannah, from my new EP, Let It All Begin, has just been released to country radio and early reviews have been great.  I’m so excited about this song.  It really captures the essence of who I am and the obstacles and doubt I've had to overcome in high school and later in my life when I decided to pursue a career in music.   I hope the song touches you the same way it touches me, please enjoy.

Please stop by my website www.JoannaMosca.com if you want to hear the new song!  The song is also available for purchase on I-tunes.

Hello Everyone!
Hope you are having a wonderful and colorful spring.  Everything is in bloom everywhere I look and that always makes me smile, and sometimes sneeze! The past couple of months have been very busy for me and I wanted to let you know what I have been up to!

I recently spent some time in beautiful Nashville, Tennessee where I recorded the vocals for two brand new songs for my soon to be released EP entitled “Let It All Begin.”  I’m once again working with Grammy winner Bryan White who is producing this EP.  One of the songs I’m doing called, "I Guess That Says it All", was also written by Bryan.  (He’s a multi-talented guy!)  It's a beautiful, heartbreaking song which I can't wait for you to hear. (It's always more fun to record the "tear your heart out songs.” I don't know why!)  I had great fun with Bryan and engineer Jason in Bryan's beautiful studio. I’ll be back in Nashville soon to record a few more song and we should be ready for a late spring release. I’ll keep you posted!

In February I attended the Annual Country Radio Seminar held in Nashville.  This event brings Country Radio people from all over the world together for educational meetings, networking, performances and fun. I saw some great performances by Lady A, Darius Rucker, Faith Hill, George Strait, Alan Jackson, I’m Josh Turner, Lee Ann Womack and some American Idol alumni, Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina. (I met Scotty and he's as sweet and humble as he seemed when he was on the show.)

During the day I did radio and magazine interviews and met some wonderful people working in the journalism area of the Country Radio industry.

Steve Martin from Lexington Broadcasting

I had the opportunity to send a video message of support to our US Marines and I recorded some Public Service Announcements for several great organizations and charities, including World Vision, Save The Music, Inc., and City of Hope. While recording a PSA for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) I had the privilege of meeting two of MDA's young Ambassadors, Sara and Bryson I loved meeting them, they were filled with life and joy and hope. You can see it in the photo below.



CRS after hours was another whole event. As you might imagine, there were lots of bands playing in town, numerous parties and several late nights. My favorite place, however, was the infamous Bridge Bar at the Renaissance Hotel which is the place to be during CRS weekend!

Nashville is truly one of the best cities in the South for “comfort food”, and my favorite comfort food haunt in Nashville is called Rotier's. I went there on my last night and it was fried catfish and grits night. OMG. Heaven! I also indulged in one of their famous milkshakes!  The entire meal was pure joy!

It was a wonderful and exciting trip full of people who are absolutely passionate about Country music, from performers, to journalists to fans.  I can’t wait to attend next year’s seminar!

Happy Spring,
Joanna
