June 3, 2016
The 39th annual Atlanta Jazz Festival kicked off during Memorial Day weekend (May 27th-29th) at historic Piedmont Park. Three days of great music, food and fun in the sun in the heart of Midtown Atlanta. The headliner for Friday night was Joi Gilliam who got the festival off to a great start. Entering the stage with a sequence red dress with one leg out accompanied by beautiful headgear and feathered wings. You immediately knew that you were in for a show. Thanking the crowd for supporting her music career that now spans over 20 years. She did songs from her previous albums like Sunshine & the Rain, Fatal Lovesick Journey all the while backed by drummer Lil John Roberts and a full live band.
Towards the end of her set Joi gave the crowd a treat by performing a new song off the upcoming “Rebekkah Holylove is her name” album. The track is called “On my way to Berlin” and it got a great response from the huge crowd gathered that night. Enjoy footage from her performance including the unreleased “On my way to Berlin” track. Connect with Joi CLICK HERE TO VISIT HER WEBSITE
