JANDA ist Komponistin, Gitarristin, studierte Jazz/Pop-Sängerin und Podcasterin aus Leipzig. Zahlreiche Konzerte
führten sie durch ganz Deutschland, Österreich, die Schweiz, Italien, die USA und Indien. Als gefragte Vokalistin für
Live- und Studioproduktionen teilte sie bereits mit Künstler*innen wie Alin Coen, Celina Bostic und Woods of Birnam
die Bühne.

Die 10 neuen Songs erschienen im November 2023 unter dem Titel »APNOE« (altgriech.: »nicht atmen«):
Detailreich ausproduziert und atmosphärisch eindrucksvoll erzählt das Album von einem Tauchgang zwischen zwei
Atemzügen und klingt dabei wie das akustische Storyboard zu einem Film, den es noch nicht gibt. Einflüsse wie Becca
Stevens, Joni Mitchell, Fink und Sufjan Stevens schimmern durch, und doch: Jandas Sound ist anders. Mit einer
mühelosen Mixtur aus Folk-Strukturen, Versatzstücken aus Jazz, Pop und Electronics lotet sie die Grenzen des
Singer/Songwriter-Genres aus. APNOE geht dabei sowohl emotional als auch wortwörtlich in die Tiefe, zieht
Zuhörende in den Bann. Unverkennbar dabei: Jandas glasklare, nuancenreiche Stimme.
