NOT your ordinary folk singer......Costello delivers a sophisticated fusion of jazz, folk rock, and blues. With the eloquence and vocal range of Barbra Streisand, the power and soul of Aretha Franklin, the songbird quality of Joni Mitchell, and the edgy guitar pounding rhythms of Ani DiFranco; Costello's brand of jazz folk defines it all!
Winner of the Ozark Music Awards' "Folk Artist of the Year" for 2002 and "Best Solo Female Singer/Songwriter" for 2005's Northwest Arkansas Music Awards'. Jori's first CD, "Home Grown" nominated "Best CD" in the Ozark region.
".....Costello is big sound. Her talent and crystal clear voice and delivery could carry her to any stage of any size."
-Fayetteville Free Weekly
".....gutsy singing voice as she belts out......a wide variety of voice and instinctively knows how to deliver a variety of songs with tons of feeling and inflection. Her guitar playing - infectious, melodic, precise.....
seamless performance."
-Ozark Gazette
