Artist description No throwback to sixties folk, AJ's original material blends contemporary jazz and groove influences with heartfelt lyrics and stunning vocals. Audiences along the eastern seaboard have been enchanted by AJ's classically trained voice–a voice that can turn from breathy and operatic to almost ferocious in the context of a single song. AJ Powers' live performances captures audiences and won't let them go. She is equally at home, and equally as enthralling, performing solo with an acoustic guitar or performing with her rump-shaking rhythm section as a three-piece band. She can hold court on the dance floor or in the coffee shop with equal dexterity.
