With her acoustic-based, Americana and blues-influenced folk rock, Jodie Manross has become one of East Tennessees top singer-songwriters. Known as the little woman with the big voice, Jodie possesses a powerful voice much larger than her size and surprises audiences with her soulful delivery of songs.
Performing in concert halls, coffeehouses, and colleges throughout the United States, Jodie has opened for many talented, diverse musicians such as BB King, John Mayer, Blind Boys of Alabama, Keb Mo, Rusted Root, Sugarland, Jennifer Nettles, Scott Miller, Jonatha Brooke, Mindy Smith, Meshell Ndegeocello, Garrison Starr, Peter Case, and Leon Russell. Jodie also had the honor of being a 2005 Bonnaroo Music Festival artist. Jodie recently had music featured on the second season of the hit Fox TV show, "So You Think You Can Dance, " which was in the top ten TV shows of 2006's summer.
Jodie is a contributing artist on the just released cd Beyond the Blues: A Tribute To Peter Case, which includes legends such as Victoria Williams, Joe Ely, Dave Alvin, Chuck Prophet (with Dan Vickrey & Jim Bogios of Counting Crows), Lester Chambers, James McMurtry, Tom Russell, Kim Richey, Maura O'Connell and John Prine.
This up and coming roots singer-songwriter breaks the traditional singer-songwriter mold and is refreshingly impossible to categorize. This year, Los Angeles' Entertainment Weekly exclaimed, Soon you'll be calling her "the" Jodie Manross. With original music that embodies both grace and power, Jodie Manross is not to be missed.
Here is a clip of Jodie's song "Still" on Fox's So You Think You Can Dance! Here is a youtube clip of a California high school color guard's route to "Still!!" They won first place in their competition. Thank you Vista Murrieta High School Winter Guard for using our song!
