Phoenix J (a translation of her Chinese name
"Hong") a.k.a. Joan Martin, is a Singapore born,
UK based performing singer-songwriter.
A self-taught musician, Phoenix progressed
from singing in choirs in her native Singapore to running her
own Firebird studio... and finding herself alongside Elton John
in the top 40 charts with her debut release Binary
Star.
Having toured globally, and along the way garnering
accolades such as winning Best Dance Song in the US Just Plain
Folks Music Awards, she has now settled in the rural West of
the UK. From here she released a second solo album, Junkk,
whilst also fronting for London-based electro-rock band greenhaus.
This critically-acclaimed collaboration has
a global following, enticed by their sonic wall of sound, complemented
with Phoenix’s ethereal stage presence and vocals.
Her latest musical evolution is very much in
a new direction, going back to her acoustic roots. And in her
Second Life incarnation
as Phoe Nix, she is set to debut the next stage of her journey
of musical self-discovery online, presenting both covers and
originals in a soulful and jazzy style, with heartfelt vocals,
self-accompanied on piano.
