Johanna Beekman’s extraordinary music combines the emotional depth of Sarah McLachlan, the intimate delivery of Eva Cassidy, the soulful melodiousness of Joss Stone, the indie edge of KT Tunstall, and the improvisational unpredictability of Ella Fitzgerald. In 2005, Johanna completed her BS in Women's Studies related to diversity education and a minor in theater with a focus on social action and improvisation.
Johanna wrote her first song at 9 years old. By the time she was 20 she had released her first album of original music, studied songwriting with Chris Williamson and Tret Fure, musical improvisation with jazz singer Rhiannon and rhythm-master Keith Terry, performed in musical theatre, rock and world-beat bands, gospel and women's community choirs, improvisational acting and singing troupes, social action theatre groups, films (including Gus Van Sant's Sundance Award-winning "Elephant"), and countless festivals, political rallies, clubs, coffee houses, colleges, and universities.
Her music has been influenced by Ani Difranco, Sarah McLachlan, Tori Amos, Carol King, Grace Slick, Tracy Chapman, Bette Midler, the Indigo Girls, the Beatles, and Motown.
