Jorja is a Canadian independent singer songwriter, breathing new life into pop ballads through raw vocals and authentic storytelling. With Jorja, less is more, as she is able to captivate audiences with just a piano and her voice. Jorja does it all: being a multiinstrumentalist, songwriter and producer, she likes to get things done.
"The beauty of having a broad skill set is the freedom that comes with it, especially when making music- you have full control over the entire creative process and in the end, you're left with a product that is entirely and authentically you". - JORJA
Jorja is currently celebrating the release of her album SHOWTUNES ; a musical theatre tribute album, honouring some of her favourite broadway songs. Comprised of 7 tracks from different shows & composers, each song features a full band of Macewan University Bachelor of Music Graduates. SHOWTUNES brings a sense of heart and celebration to listeners, reminding them of just how timeless these tunes are.
Originating from Cochrane, Alberta, Jorja was an awarded finalist in the Cochrane Rotary Youth Talent Festival (2016, 2017, 2018) and the recipient of the "Overall Rotary Award Of Excellence" (2020) for her original song "Mr. Melody". She then resided in Edmonton, earning her diploma of Theatre Arts and her Diploma of Music, both from Grant Macewan University. Jorja has been a three time returning performer at the Bella Concert Hall for Empowering Minds' "Live & Unsigned" Talent showcase and fundraiser, the most recent being where audiences got to hear "Expire" sung live for the first time.
When Jorja is in Cochrane, she spends her time volunteering with Take A Bow Community theatre, directing their youth musical productions. Jorja will be returning to direct her third youth musical production with Take A Bow in 2027.
Alongside writing and creating music, musical theatre has always been one of Jorja's passions. Jorja is always finding the balance between life as an actor and life as a musician, as she could never quite choose between the two.
Jorja is currently residing in Cochrane, where she teaches voices lessons focusing on multiple genres and styles of singing, and performance.
Jorja is always writing new songs and she currently has an album of original music in the works!
