“Joelle Lurie has something in common with a lot of superheroes: She has two identities. To adults, she’s the leader of Joelle & the Pinehurst Trio, an ensemble known for contemporary jazz. But to children, she’s the driving force behind JoJo & the Pinecones, a band that fuses jazz and pop, offering both original tunes and its own arrangements of standards.”— The New York Times

 

“It’s a new day for family music – JoJo and the Pinecones wake up the field with a program both fresh and fun. Our audience couldn’t get enough of the Pinecones’ classic favorites and clever originals!” – Andrew Anzel, Lincoln Center Education

 

“She gives everything a fresh sound…an airy touch with putting pop grooves beneath old standards…Lurie is onto something here: both accessible and a little different…”– Will Layman, Popmatters.Com

 

Past & Upcoming Bookings Include: Lincoln Center, Kidzapalooza at Lollapalooza, Madison Square Park, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Brooklyn Childrens Museum, Strathmore
