Michel Jons Band

Artist ID: 31050

"Classy" describes her look "Dynamic" describes her stage presence and her voice; Phenomenal. Sometimes meteors are mistaken for stars while real stars go unnoticed until you're close enough to see how bright they shine. Michel Jons is that far away star, moving ever closer to the moment in time she claimed long ago. Never mind the spotlight she's bringing her own illuminating talent and powerful voice to enlighten the ears, minds and hearts of the world. Michel is writing her own history due to her ability to own a song. She is an ultimate song stylist inspired by but not emulating the great vocalist from the past and present. Tina, Aretha, Patti, Gladys, Chaka, Billie, Natalie, Etta and even Patsy Cline were major influences for Michel and you can hear them all when she opens her mouth to sing. And sing, she has; 15,000 people at the Narni Music Festival (with William Bell and Trudy Lynne) in Italy, 10,000 at Phillips arena (sang the National Anthem) before an Atlanta Hawks game, 30,000 during the 1996 centennial Olympic Games, 12,000 at the Sweet Auburn Festival and well over 100,000 people when she's performed at the Atlanta Pride Festival (with CeCe Peniston and Debbie Gibson). Large numbers are great but Michel has performed every year for television and movie actress Sela Ward's birthday party at her residence with fifty people in attendance. Michel has opened for: The Gap Band, Howard Hewitt (formerly of Shalamar), Percy Sledge, Chaka Khan and Georgia Music Hall of Fame Inductee "William Bell" during his induction as well as sang background on one of his recent CD releases and toured Italy with him.

I just wanted to drop a quick word of thanks again to you and your wonderful band. You all provided "a night to remember" for us and we are so appreciative! You guys have a good thing going because you really know how to respond to the crowd and I think that helps to make you a great band. Not to mention that each of you is so very talented!! I'm positive that this year we had more members dancing throughout the night than ever before. That meant that they were enjoying the music and having a great time with you super musicians. In years past, we have heard many complaints after the dance that the band was so loud that people couldn't talk or visit, particularly through dinner. I haven't heard one complaint from anybody, it's all good!!!!!! Thank you so much for a job well done, for being so gracious to work with, and we'll look forward to another time in Hickory. Sincerely,
Carole Cumming

Keith and I were very pleased with Michel Jons. They did an outstanding job in getting our guests up on their feet the entire night. From two-year olds to eighty-year olds, there was something for everyone! All of our guests raved about the Band who was described as "energetic and vivacious!" Thank you for help making our day special. We appreciate it.
With enthusiasm,
Taylor and Keith Lerner

They were great! The students loved them and stayed until the end ( a definite plus; usually they leave dances a little early). The band said they rarely play for high school and colleges; I would definitely recommend them.

Again they did an awesome job all around, keyboardist during cocktail hour, the tonight show, everything went great. Michele did a great job of reading the crowd and working with me and the hotel. I couldn't have asked for better!
