Artist Bio
It was at the tender age of six that marked the inception of a true, budding musical artist. That was when AJ Jansen commenced singing and song writing. Since then,having said that, her extensive list of credentials has also surpassed and skyrocketed into a whole new realm in itself. At twenty-one, she was singing to crowds of nearly a thousand and felt most privileged to accept an invitation to sing the National Anthem at The Mohegan Sun Arena Football Game in Uncasville, CT to a group of 4,000 people. It was at that moment that she knew that music was her passion, in her soul, a part of who she was, and she wanted to share that with others. She adores playing live for the public.
Her special appearances have been at locales such as The Newport Blues Café, various benefits, and other well-known country establishments in the area.
To recap the last few years, she won Best Female Modern Country Vocalist from the Connecticut Country Music Association (CCMA) back in 2005. Also, in that year, she won Best Recording for her original single, “Moments” which is featured on the CCMA compilation CD. 2006 was also another prodigious year. The Wolf Den at The Mohegan Sun asked her back for five consecutive monthly shows!! It was a dream come true for her to be performing on the very same stage she had seen so many legendary country and rock performers. AJ also attended the national championships for the North American Country Music Association (NACMAI) in Nashville, TN. At the NACMAI Nationals, she won the NACMAI Horizon Female Vocalist of the Year for 2006. That year also marked the year of her much anticipated debut CD, entitled, “This Night Belongs To Me.” The album was released just in time for the summer fair season. The Big E, New England’s biggest Country Fair asked her to play six, successive shows where she was able to catch up with old fans, and meet and greet the new ones. Then, in 2007, AJ toured Border's Bookstores, where there was a great turnout of listeners who were eager for more. She happily obliged the patrons' requests for encores. 2008 proved to be a productive and awesome year. AJ was featured on Japanese television on a segment called, "The New York Songwriter's Circle.” Also, in 2008, a handful of New York Clubs booked her, including the infamous, "The Bitter End." as well as in Nashville from Soundcheck to Limelight
AJ followed up her debut album with the release of her sophomore effort “Dirty Country” then followed by her third album "Bars, Scars and Old Guitars" She is now in the studio finishing her fourth album entitled "A Country Girl Can Survive" AJ also opened for Phil Vasser, and played regularly at the Mohegan Sun. Along with apearances on the Billy Block Show and Gary Garver's show she is in high demand for her talents. AJ is now in New England and Nashville where she performs all over to Country Music fans and her zeal for singing and song writing is evident in the lyrics, and the melodies that come straight from her heart.
