Tells Tales
Often compared to Joni Mitchell, guitar-toting Janette Geri’s music has been making big waves Down Under. A gifted singer of rare warmth and beauty, Janette is a captivating and powerful performer with a truly beautiful voice, great acoustic guitar style and a genius for interpretation. As a solo act she can mesmerize her audiences with soaring and assured vocals, rich guitar work and wicked sense of humour, and with her band she creates an unforgettable energy and great range of moods. Her unique Celtic/folk output is given a contemporary slant, blending elements of soul with earthy grooves, eclectic rhythms, jazz approaches, a touch of blues and strong world sensibilities. This stand-out style has already seen her perform at Australia’s biggest venues, including Melbourne Concert Hall and Melbourne's Continental Cafe, together with prestigious festival appearances (including the Port Fairy Folk Festival) and with acclaimed international artists such as Jean Paul Wabotai, Abdul TJ Rokoto, The Fureys and Maria Ford. Now, with several self-published CDs under her belt, she’s on tour to celebrate the release of her latest opus ‘Telling Tales’ - a stunning collection of traditional Celtic songs, all with her inimitable contemporary flavour. Don’t miss this chance to catch her in what will be a perfect, intimate setting to showcase Janette’s songs at their spell-binding best.
