Another jewel from Tamparuli Sabah, Ms Joan Jim Lajim a raising star from Kg Kionsom Baru Tamparuli Sabah. Her brother Gilbert Jim Lajim was a very nice friend of mine. Famous with his Song " Glowing In The Dark" with Papier Mache local band from Tamparuli Sabah. Joan Lajim is a graduate from ASK - Akademi Seni Kebangsaan Malaysia. Have a nice voice just like the Queen of Jazz, Sheila Majid. First debut with The Jesseltone about a year ago singing her very best single title of " Hingga Esok Tiba". Below is a little bit information about Joan and The Jeseltone which I copy from her blog. I cannot reveal more because I need permission from her, anyway do enjoy the clip and Go Joan Go...
I am so proud to introduce you a band group “ Joan & the Jeseltone“ . The special thing about this group is the singer, Joan Jim Lajim, from Tamparuli and was my ex-classmate from Form 1 until Form 5. Ever since I knew her, she really has a very very nice voice.
Joan & the Jeseltone will bring you in appreciation of the traditional jazz music with the combination of R&B, pop and funk. This traditional jazz sound will be modernized with their own approaches and by subtlety playing without hesitating too much about the right and wrong in music theories. Joan & the Jeseltone is about six people combine in making a song happen instead of one song plays by six people. What they try to present in this band is not whose music they’re playing but how they deliver the music to everyone. Considering the sound from the 50’s New Orleans to the Millenium’s R&B, they will try to make the best out of it in presenting the today’s sound of Jazz. Drums : Bob “Skunjas”
