Man In A Town Car (Extended Version)

Still Portrait

I Believe In You

Man In A Town Car

“Her voice and songwriting have earned her devoted fans… she uses her life experiences to connect with listeners.” — EARMILK

Amsterdam-based Joelle Charan released her 2025 holiday single Where Are You Christmas in November 2025. The song is a cherished childhood memory, which starts melancholic for we've lost the magic of Christmas. Towards the end, we remember that there is love in our hearts. Thus, we find the joy of Christmas again: it is always with us.

Joelle's upcoming album was remixed and mastered by John Reynolds, known for his work with the likes of U2, Brian Eno, Damien Rice, and Sinéad O'Connor. She has enjoyed international press and radio support with interviews, studio performances and airplay.

Joelle has built a solid track record of sold-out performances in the UK and the Netherlands over the past few years. Further highlights include singing in the Royal Concertgebouw Amsterdam for Festival Uitmarkt, Royal Theatre Carré as a soloist for Duizend Stemmen in Carré and Paradiso Amsterdam for the Korendagen with a black gospel choir.

Upon graduating with a degree in jazz vocals (main subject), jazz piano and pop songwriting (side subjects) from the Conservatory of Amsterdam, Joelle studied at The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York City. Her current vocal coach is Margot Giselle of the Frank Sanders Academy for Musical and Music Theatre.
