Jonelle Marie
Singer/Songwriter Jonelle Marie grew up in Seneca, Illinois and has been writing and
singing since the young age of three. Her first writings were published in a poetry
book at the age of eight. At the age of fourteen, Jonelle began modeling and
continued to model through her high school years, but with music being her first
love, she quit modeling to concentrate on the music industry.

Shortly after she turned twenty-one, Jonelle joined her first band. She performed
throughout the Chicagoland area for three years, before she met Bobby Scumaci (of
Dave Mason's band). Jonelle and Bobby joined forces and he produced her first c.d.
entitled "Listen." She and Bobby carefully assembled a team of musicians from
around the U.S. who played on the project and added a diverse mix of talent to each
song.

Jonelle Marie broke on to the radio airways via Chicago area station WJDK-FM
and several other stations across the United States since. Her first single "Not Your
Doll" has become an online download hit, drawing in over 100,000 downloads in the
second half of 2004 and continued on to hit over 250,000 in the beginning of 2005.

Jonelle has already found a unique audience for herself, via the internet and live
shows. A global audience has embraced her sound and has been exposed to her

with big time talent. Her down to earth lyrics, vocals, and personality make for an
artist that’s out of this world! Someday soon, Jonelle Marie will be a household
name."

band from Dwight, Illinois.  Here she combines her passionate voice and not only
sings heart stopping lead vocals but also backup vocals that makes the audience
stop and take note.  She has definitely found a nitch with band member Terry
