In an intimate setting, Jody Joseph reveals her feelings about life and love through the powerful songs of four legendary artists. While unveiling the musical DNA that threads through the heart and soul of Jody Joseph, and the artists who influenced her life: Joni Mitchell, Bette Midler, Janis Joplin and Stevie Nicks, she sings and talks about the common thread that weaved its way thru her own musical life and also shows the parallels in her own songwriting. This particular show, where Jody is performing as herself, is up front and personal, riveting, witty and real.

Vintage performances, as well as a glimpse of her pilot, Heart Strings, which is Jody’s personal mission, will show the journeys of her young vocal students and the healing power of music.

A portion of the proceeds will be used to fund a musical enhancement program run by The Mental Health Association of Monmouth County (MHA). The Heartstrings program provides a holistic component to the Family Crisis Intervention Unit for at-risk youth, to help their young clients foster creativity, alleviate stress, and reach their personal goals.
