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.

I think this was the most phenominal performance I've ever seen. I think her voice and personality are second to none. Her musical and vocal talent is amazing. Her voice is pure and she is a great performer...You will NOT be sorry you purchase tickets to any of her shows!!
First time to House of Blues, and anywhere in the house you are not more than 40 feet from the performer, who in this case, is one of the most amazing acoustic performers. Great stage presence, fabulous voice.......we were the ones singing along to every song :-)
Jo Dee gave an awesome concert!!!! It was incredible! I would go again and again and again!!!
I did not expect the concert to be so personal, when the curtins opend up and JoDee started to sing and after the song she said I like people to ask questions it was amazing it was like hanging out in her living room and just sitting and chatting with her and then her singing to you . If you get a chance you have to see it .
I was pretty disappointed with the show. Too much talking and not enough singing. Too much audience participation. I want to hear music, not what other people have to say. Jo Dee didn't even do one of the songs I went to see her sing, which is 'Someone Else's Life'. Also, what happened to her music? Did she switch over to more Christian oriented songs? I wasn't picking up what she was laying down. Her best song, according to me, is 'My Give A Damn's Busted'. The entire audience, besides me and my best friend, were completely flat lined. It was as if someone had called a code blue on the entire place. Seriously? At least we danced to it!!! I didn't understand it at all,!!! With that said, she got a standing ovation for a song about God from her new, yet to be released album. So...perhaps that says something about the crowd that was there. I guess it goes without saying, I won't be buying her new album. Was sorely disappointed!!!
I was not a big follower of Jo Dee and to tell you the truth we (my husband and I) decided to go see her because it was something different than going to a movie. But after seeing her, I went on ITunes and put most of her songs on my iPod. I had a few already. I liked her uniqueness with the show and talking with the fans and taking requests. I thought it was great of her to allow one of the contest winners to sing on stage. I would definetly go see her again when she is in South Florida. The venue she played at was also nice because it is small and it just makes the concert better
Great venue - small, intimate - perfect for her interactive show. LOVED the songs....everyone was singing the favorites. The new ones were great as well - can't wait for the new album, and the new single "That's God". Loved getting to know a bit about the singer and her band - great musicians, by the way. Very entertaining.
Jo Dee was awesome! She sounded great & was very personal with the audience! I just wish I would of had closer seats!
Jo Dee put on an amazing show and raised a lot of money for the charity. She sounded great and my daughter and I had a wonderful time. We were slightly disappointed that the crowd was very subdued instead of really into the show as we were. Jo Dee wasn't the reason--she rocked! Maybe the crowd was slightly older or not familiar with her music. All in all, great show and would go again!
I had always admired Jo Dee Messina and had planned to see her last year before a job move. When the opportunity presented itself, I bought tickets for the event when I moved to Nashville. Wouldn't you know it...got transferred to Memphis, but still made the concert. The staff was friendly and made me feel very welcomed. The warm up band was extra ordinary...I usually do not like Christian music, but they were very good. Then Jo Dee Messina came on and dominated the entire theatre. Very personable....she made fun of herself. The concert was to last only an hour or so, but once she started we were there for two and a half hours. She sang all her hits, had lots of audience participation, especially when she sang a song like the Tennessee state song "Rocky Top." I would love to see her next performance.
