Sami Jo is a country singer/songwriter from Redding, CA. With a lifelong passion for writing songs, her desire is to touch hearts with her music, in either a catchy, tapping of the foot manner or a simple, speak to your soul sort of fashion. She is not one to shy away from vividly incorporating her own life experiences into each of her songs, whether positive or negative, and she will happily tell you the story behind each song if you ask her. A regular at The Bluebird Cafe, Sami Jo lives in Nashville and can often be found at various writer's rounds around town, connecting and engaging with her fans.

Depending on the event/venue, we are able to perform country music, classic rock, and a good mix of original songs. My style can be very soft, suitable for a wedding/valentines event, as I perform many pretty love songs. However, if you are having a party, we are also very capable to rock some Tom Petty, Beatles, REO Speedwagon, Lynyrd Skynyrd (yes, I mean Freebird).
Although she is a professed and enthusiastic country music lover, and her musical style leans more heavily towards country than classic rock, ask Sami Jo what her top influence is and she will immediately tell you it is the Beatles. Entranced with the way the Beatles could weave a song together with well crafted lyrics and melodies, she strives to mirror similar emotions in her own artistry. Apart from songwriting, Sami Jo started Nashville's one and only all-female, four piece Beatles tribute band - PENNY LANE. This tribute has attracted much attention since they began in April of 2022, and they have only just begun.
In January 2022, Sami Jo took on another successful side hustle, SAMS JAMS - a themed writer's round located at the Virgin Hotel on Music Row, Nashville. She hosts this event every Tuesday, inviting some of the city's most talented songwriters and artists to share their beautiful music with a captivated audience. There is a different creative theme each week, keeping the round fresh and exciting, initiating a buzz as one of Nashville's most unique writer's rounds.
The Beatles, Tom Petty, Stevie Nicks, Shania Twain, Miranda Lambert, Merle Haggard, Bob Dylan
