Presenting Dawn Joseph

Dawn Joseph is not new to Music. She grew up in a very musical family and has had an illustrious career as an in-demand vocalist and songwriter for a wide range of very well known acts and artists from Michael McDonald and Cee Lo Green to Rick Astley and The Brand New Heavies and a lot in between. She currently also forms part of the Future Funk/Soul Duo with Jan Kincaid known as MF Robots.

What is undeniable is that her first love is Soul music, R&B in the TRUE sense of the word. Artists like Etta James, Aretha and Erma Franklin, Nancy Wilson and Marlena Shaw are where she rests her ears and where her taste truly lies. Not just in the singing style of these wonderful vocal stylists, but also in the material they chose, the whole ‘Aesthetic’ even. Dawn Writes and performs from the heart, keeping the benchmark of these incredible artists close to her heart at all times. But at the same time in an increasingly generic world, where mediocrity and a somewhat bland approach seems to mark a lot of popular musical output, Dawn is fiercely in search of the spirit of her musical forbears and ‘teacher’s, to tap into that spirit that makes those songs and productions still sound so fresh even today and pick up a whole new generation of listeners at each turn. 

Classic, words and music that SPEAK to you, that can move and resound at a deeper level, in a world that increasingly needs solace. She is a striving individual, restless even, she is driven by this passion and does so in a way that is uniquely her own, she has her own sense of style, makes her own stage outfits, and anyone who has caught her with MF Robots at a show knows she is a truly exciting, energetic and captivating performer, and she is just getting started.

From raw soul stompers to heart breaking ballads, in short, Dawn Joseph is The Real Deal.
