A Native New Yorker of Dominican
decent, Joann's sensibility of various cultures has allowed her to produce
groundbreaking events within the Latino, Caribbean, Brazilian and art/dance
communities for over six years now. The stars were all in her favor when her
first involvement in the music industry was with the legendary party Body and
Soul in 1998. Her affiliations include Francois K's. music label Wave Music and
Deep Space. After her first trip to Brazil, she was moved to start a monthly
event called ALMA NYC (myspace.com/almanyc) with DJ's True and
Miller Cruz in 2004. Later, getting back to her more intimate roots, Joann began
her next endeavor, a Latin party celebrating Afro-Latin soul called RAZA (myspace.com/razanyc). Joann continues to reinvent herself as she
brings her personal flair to this musical life style! You can read up more on
her at: myspace.com/joann_jimenez.

The South Street Seaport has
historically been New York's gateway to the world. In that tradition, the soul
series will offer musical samplings as diverse as the city
itself!
