If you missed the sold out Janis Lives – A Tribute to Janis Joplin concert last year at Jazzbones, here is your chance for another groovy flashback! Hippie attire strongly encouraged! Come celebrate the music of Janis Joplin by Janis Lives, Creedence Clearwater Revival performed by Creedence Rising And Neil Young covered by Gene Vallejo.
Sherrie “Voxxy” Johnson’s portrayal of Janis Joplin is so compelling that it will make a fan out of you even if you’ve never experienced the magic of Janis Joplin before.
Here’s what we experienced last time: “I never had the opportunity to see Janis Joplin play live and after a quick look around a packed Jazzbones. I’m guessing most of the people there hadn’t either. Much to the collective delight of all of us at the club that night however, Sherry “Voxxy” Johnson dug deep inside and bared her soul to us in a magical way that helped us try to understand and experience the complicated but extremely talented Joplin. Johnson’s energy was infectious and her loving connection with the crowd was felt throughout the venue. It wasn’t just the connection though, she absolutely sounded, looked and acted just how I’d picture a show with Janis. When Sherry Johnson dons her outfit and takes the stage as Joplin, Janis truly does live! “
