Jeanne Jolly & The Mistletoes

Saturday, December 21
Doors: 7pm // Show: 8pm
$30 to $45
Jeanne Jolly’s artistry encompasses the heartfelt confessional quality of the singer-songwriter tradition, the earthiness of American roots music, a hint of jazz sophistication, and the smoldering emotionality of soul balladry. Her vocals exhibit a honeyed expressivity, shifting between down-homey and sweetly soaring.

Previously, she’s released an EP (Falling in Carolina) and two full length albums—her first album, Angels, debuted in the Top 15 on the iTunes singer/songwriter chart. For her most recent album, A Place to Run, she has garnered plum accolades such as being praised as a singer/songwriter who “melds folksy, soulful country with heavenly, heartfelt lyricism” (News & Observer), and as a vocalist who “can easily shift to the dusky lilt of Alison Krauss or the sophisticated jazz phrasing of Ricki Lee Jones” (Missoulian). The Boston Globe calls her “one of contemporary music’s best kept secrets. She is a revelation when you sit in on one of her concerts.” Atlanta Music Guide says, “Damn, that Jeanne Jolly can sing. Imagine Joni Mitchell with Billy Holidays stylings.”

Over the years, she’s built robust live profile through tireless touring. She’s shared the stage with such respected artists as K.T. Tunstall, Emmylou Harris, Robert Earl King, The Foreign Exchange, Zo!, Billy Joe Shaver, Jim Lauderdale, Sam Bush, Suzy Bogguss, Maura O’Connell, Chuck Mead, Chuck Prophet, and Chatham County Line.

Jeanne began her musical career as a featured vocalist for Chris Botti. While touring with the Grammy award-winning jazz trumpeter, she worked with world-renowned symphonies and had the distinct honor to perform at venues such as Carnegie Hall and play marquee events such as the Monterey Jazz Festival. She is classically trained as a singer and holds a BA in Voice from Western Carolina University and a Masters in vocal performance from the New England Conservatory of Music where she was a soloist with the Boston Philharmonic.

She currently resides in North Carolina with her two children, husband, and sweet dog Lucy (who made her big screen debut in Jolly’s “Boundless Love” video)
