Live Music: Joanna Lee

On the title track of her highly anticipated debut album So Free, singer/songwriter JoAnna Lee, age 27 makes a personal declaration about following her own path that will inspire anyone who wants to brush off the naysayers and take bold, massive action towards achieving their dreams. With her soulful, dusky voice (that has earned her favorable comparisons to everyone from Grace Potter, Colbie Callait, Susan Tedeschi and Bonnie Raitt) sharing the urgency of following our hearts, she sings, “The world can be cruel and cold/Don’t let it take ahold. . .What will it take for you to finally see the truth. . .the only way to be is so free, free to be who I wanna be. ..You’re the one in control/Do what’s right for your soul…”
