About Joan
Joan Penney brings out the best in jazz audiences by selecting and playing charts that are diverse, generational, and so full of love and swing that you just have to dance! Working with a broad variety of regional, a-list musicians, Joan’s musical selections range from Latin, classic jazz standards, pop and show tune arrangements, blues, and comedic tunes. Audiences can sometimes find themselves as part of the show whether it is singing along, dancing, or winning one of Joan’s “infamous” holiday show prizes. Regularly featured at many different lounges and restaurants up and down I-5, check out Joan’s performance schedule for a venue near you.
“Joan Penney is one of our favorites at the Rockfish. She’s a talented singer and interpreter of the American songbook with a real talent for connection with her audience. She also surrounds herself with other top musicians from the area, so her shows are always first rate, fun and engaging. Joan is consistently a joy to work with!”
