Description
Knowing Jana's music is an incredible adventure. Exploring her cultural roots, Jana released "AMERICAN INDIAN STORY" which got her a second GRAMMY nomination (she is Lumbee and Tuscarora). She continued to pay tribute to her heritage with the exquisite AMERICAN INDIAN CHRISTMAS, an extraordinary work with full orchestra and traditional Native American instruments. A critical and commercial success beyond her wildest imagination, the album won her another NAMMY award. A soul-stirring collection steeped in R&B and gospel roots, NEW MOON BORN brought Jana back into the mainstream spotlight. She debuted the featured track, an emotional cover of Sam Cooke’s classic, A Change Is Gonna Come, at the American Indian Inaugural Ball for President Obama. This was her second performance for a First Family. She sang at the First Lady’s Luncheon for Laura Bush. The song went on to win her an eighth Native American Music Award for Song of the Year and the video took the Best Music Video prizes at the prestigious Indie Film Festival and at the American Indian Film Festival. In March of 2012 she was named Best Female Vocalist by the Rockwired Music Awards. In December 2012 she co-headlined a show with Sarah McLachlan at Carnegie Hall ... With all she has going on and with a tour schedule that has brought her to forty nine of the fifty states as well as overseas, Jana has still found time to give back. Her Jana’s Kids Foundation has been helping Native youth achieve their dreams through its programs and scholarship offerings for almost as long as she has been an artist. In recognition of her efforts, Jana was named 2011 Woman of the Year for her philanthropic work.
