JoZie

You never know what kind of magic can start when a parent gives their child a karaoke machine. At eight years old, JoZie found musical magic through the karaoke machine her dad gave her. 

 She sang her heart out to tunes by Mariah Carey, Kelly Clarkson, Rihanna, and Gwen Stefani. Her dream: To become a pop star and perform before thousands on a big stage and tour with some of her favorite female pop vocalists. 

From piano lessons to voice lessons-by the time JoZie was 15, heartfelt melodies and lyrics poured out of her easily.

 A Long Beach, California native, JoZie spread her wings and moved to Music City, USA at the tender age of 18. 

Nashville being the home of some of the most talented songwriters and singers in the world, JoZie developed her crafts as both vocalist and songwriter, collaborating with some of Nashville’s finest. 

In 2020, JoZie teamed up with hit songwriters, Thornton Cline and Lacie Carpenter to begin writing for her first EP project. She signed a staff songwriting publishing deal in early 2021 and was invited to join the Nashville-based record label, Clinetel Records in late 2021.

JoZie debuts her first worldwide radio single in January with the catchy, upbeat, pop-dance song, “My Lucky Song” written by hit writers, Thornton Cline and Lacie Carpenter. JoZie’s sound captivates audiences with a rare, unique voice like no other.
