Details:
Jocelyn Scofield is a dynamic and multi-talented singer/songwriter working hard to carve her own path in the music business. Music Connection Magazine recently called her âa natural storyteller and Indie-Music Magazine said she has âa voice like a gutsier Fiona Apple,â to whom she is most often compared. However, you wonât find any knock-offs in her sound. It unmistakably her own with a style that combines her greatest musical influences-pop, folk, and jazz.

Jocelyn has performed in venues ranging from tiny coffeehouses to the 61,000-seat Soldier Field Stadium in Chicago. In 2004, she moved to Los Angeles from Chicago where she was the voice of choice for emerging songwriters at Summer Song Records, Inc. Never one to wait for life to happen, upon arriving in Los Angeles she immediately began performing. In 2005, Jocelyn toured extensively through southern California, performing between four to 10 shows a month. She has been seen giving her trademark heart-felt, witty, and spontaneous performances at clubs and Borders Books and Music throughout the United States as well as the Takoma Park Folk Festival, Saugatuck Center for the Arts, and Atlantis Music Conference.

In November of 2005, Jocelyn released her debut album, This Life, which contained eight original songs. Upon the release of This Life, she embarked on a two-month national tour. With just her gear and clothes, Jocelyn traveled solo 13,000 miles across country, playing thirty-two shows in twenty-five states from November through January. The tour was in support of the Habitat for Humanityâs Operation Home Delivery for which she raised five hundred dollars. Two dollars from every CD and donations collected during the shows went to assist in Operation Home Deliveryâs hurricane relief effort.

Most recently, Jocelyn released Unplugged and Unorganized, a stripped-down acoustic EP that highlights her wide range of songwriting styles and pitch-perfect voice. From August through October of 2006, Jocelyn toured nationally for the second time performing in an eclectic mix of restaurant/bars, vineyards, festivals, and music cafes. Jocelyn is currently writing for her next album, The Immeasurables.

In addition to writing for herself, Jocelyn has begun co-writing songs for other artists. One of her songs is being recorded by a new Disney group and will be released sometime next year. She is currently writing with Grammy Award-winning songwriter/producer, Rick Hahn (Celine Dion, Taylor Dayne) and Bobby Tomberlin (Faith Hill, Diamond Rio).
