JO DEE MESSINA IN CONCERT:

Country music just wouldn't be the same without Jo Dee Messina's spunky collection of hits and trademark red hair. Her catchy country tunes have dominated the charts since the '90s, and they're even more compelling live. Whether she's showcasing her vocal prowess on hits like "Head Carolina, Tails California" or sharing her spirited attitude with adoring concertgoers, Messina definitely knows how to get the crowd going, leading fans in fun sing-alongs and telling stories along the way. With the 2014 release of Me, her first new album in almost 10 years, Messina has fans fired up for her highly anticipated upcoming tour dates.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

A Massachusetts native, Jo Dee Messina started out singing in local clubs with her siblings, eventually attracting the attention of Curb Records and moving to Nashville. Her solo career kicked off in 1996 with her widely successful self-titled debut, which reached No. 5 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart and produced two Top Ten singles. I'm Alright followed two years later and generated significant buzz with three No. 1 hits, ultimately going double platinum in the US. Since then, she's collaborated with Tim McGraw, toured with legends George Strait and The Judds, and sold over five million albums. With the desire to truly connect her fans to her music, Messina launched a Kickstarter campaign to support her 2014 album, reaching her goal in just 30 days due to her extremely dedicated fan base. Jo Dee Messina will treat audiences to her classics as well as new material from her fifth studio album Me on a string of upcoming shows.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

"This was my first Jo Dee Messina concert -- what have I been missing?! A knockout of a show. She has great stage presence and interacts with the audience. Terrific play list that kept the crowd engaged. I will definitely be at her next concert."

"There hasn't been a time that I didn't enjoy Jo Dee Messina's concerts. I think she is fantastic!"

"Absolutely amazing person, performer and concert! The band is great! If you don't see them live you are truly missing out!"

  • Awesome show

    by Kat on 11/25/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 5 out of 5

    We saw her at Talking Stick Resort. We were in the 2nd row and got some awesome pictures. The performance was so energetic and included the audience as well. Joe Dee is an awesome performer and songwriter. We would love to see her again.

  • Fantastic Show

    by Mbhamel on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 5 out of 5

    Loved the show. Jo Dee was very energetic and kept the audience involved in the show. One of the best shows I’ve saw in awhile.

  • She put on an amazing performance and show

    by Katti j on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 5 out of 5

    A must see concert. Her energy was amazing. Great song selection. She did a great job drawing the crowd in and interaction with the crowd

  • Great uplifting event!

    by drtaxman on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 4 out of 5

    The concert was great! Jo Dee was amazing, as expected, and she had the crowd engaged 100% of the time! The venue was nice; however, the sound was extremely louder than most other concerts. I'm not sure why it has to be so loud, making things sounds distorted at times. Other than that, it was a very enjoyable evening!

  • Definitely NOT a country concert

    by JH on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 3 out of 5

    We love Jo Dee Messina, but left this concert feeling as if we missed out. Jo Dee is very much into performing, but instead of country music, it was 90% Rock & Roll. I am not apposed to R & R, but we went for country. The main issue was that the drummer volume was ridiculously loud. You could not hear Jo Dee sing. You could not hear the back up vocals, guitars, keyboard, etc. The DRUMMER noise consumed the entire stage. Even when Jo Dee introduced her band, the drummer continued to play during every other person that Jo Dee was trying to highlight. It was crazy. I do not understand how something like this can happen. I don't know if it is Talking Stick Resort or the Jo Dee Messina folks, but someone definitely failed. We were not impressed at all. Terrible sound and acoustics.

  • Great Show

    by Nancy on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 5 out of 5

    JoDee Messina did not skip a beat. Terrific non stop show. One of the best Artists out there. If you have an opportunity to see her next year do it. A night to remember.

  • Flash Back to the 90's!

    by Jen on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 5 out of 5

    Great show & venue. Jo Dee Messina looked great & her voice was amazing. I knew more songs than I thought I did. I can't wait for her new album. Highly recommend.

  • My Jo Dee My Jo Dee

    by Sweet Mama on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 5 out of 5

    This concert was freaking amazing. We loved it! Songs were amazing as always. We sang along with every song. Looking forward to the next show. 2025 Jo Dee Messina is in the books.

  • Okay but ...

    by Sue S on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 3 out of 5

    Jo Dee Messina is a very talented performer. Her voice is incredible, and she has tons of energy. We wish she would have sung her own songs, not so many cover songs! We liked hearing HER new songs, but not her version of other peoples' songs. Unfortunately, the venue was a disappointment. It was our first time at Talking Stick in Scottsdale and didn't realize it was the banquet room with straight chairs. Although the stage was elevated, the floor is level so impossible to see over the tall people in front of us. Overall, a 3 out of 5.

  • Best show

    by Gabi on 11/24/25Talking Stick Resort - ScottsdaleRating: 5 out of 5

    Jo Dee Messina is one of the best singers and performers I've ever had the privilege to enjoy! Excellent show! I highly recommend it!
