With heartfelt reflections on the life of a songwriting pioneer and how they’ve inspired her own songs, Eden is joined by acclaimed pianist Chris Ingham and rising star of bass and guitar Lewis Andrews.Joni is perhaps the most beloved songwriter of all musicians so expect to see players in their element! Joanna has been a singing teacher for 12 years since the parents of her first student begged her to start. That student was Sam Smith, now an international star and highest selling debut artist in the US since records began. She began teaching Sam when he was just ten years old, coached him throughout his childhood and introduced him to songwriting, co-writing and producing his first demo tracks. She is a vocal coach for the popular music and performing arts degree courses at Anglia Ruskin University and hosts her popular ‘Singer to Artist’ workshops all over the UK. More info
