A-Jo was formed in St. Albert, Alberta and have slowly gained recognition as one of the most unique independent sounds on the Edmonton scene. Since their debut in 1996, they have garnered praise for their innovative musicianship and diverse sound. With six members who all have individual tastes, A-Jo marries funk, folk, hip-hop, rock, pop, punk and disco into a style all their own. CD release scheduled for fall 2002.Band/artist history
a-jo played its very first show ever at st. albert's Freshfest Festival as a 5 piece ensemble with then-drummer keith gibbons. later that year, keith and the rest of the band parted ways musically, and the remaining members of a-jo recruited allyson rogers to fill in. it didn't take long before the arrangement became permanent.
the members of a-jo have significant performance and theatre backgrounds, which has resulted in a band that is as entertaining to watch as it is to listen to. a-jo can often be caught breaking into spontaneous improv comedy, which means that broken strings are just another opportunity to demonstrate the band’s versatility and stage presence.
throughout the late 90s, a-jo gained recognition locally, winning the title of "best band" at st. albert's future fest. they have headlined shows at parliament, the rev, the fox and hound, tin pan alley, blues on whyte and many others. over the last two years, they have been showcased in a number of local events, including hot summer nights and the edmonton fringe festival. not only have a-jo made a name for themselves among their long-time friends and fans and other members of the edmonton music community, but they have garnered a loyal following among those who have seen them live. a-jo's unique sound, energetic performances, skilled musicianship and intriguing lyrics have set them apart from other local bands and they are poised for great success in the future.Have you performed in front of an audience?We play live as often as possible, as our music is best experienced live.
