   Baci Gram By Janelle
 



(Chicago, IL, March 1, 2008) At first glance shes demure and petite with a modest sense of chic, and an air of humility. Take another look and you will discover a raging fire ready to devour Chicago. Janelle: sassy, classy with a little bit of funk, she is a musical singer and songwriter from Chicago. Janelle is holding two shows entitled Baci Gram, which she explains is A kiss to my grandma. Plus, I love Baci chocolate. Its one of my favorite chocolates from Italy.

This project is dedicated to her late grandmother Laura Washington. These shows will have something for everyone, including special guest Tovi Kahli with her soulful sound and Sidney, a jazzy hip-hop artist. The shows will be held on June 14th at 6:00pm and June 15th at 5:00pm at Gorilla Tango Theater (1919 N. Milwaukee Avenue Chicago, IL 60647).Janelle has been working hard to establish herself as a musical tour-de-force. She is in the process of working on her upcoming album entitled, Lauras Daughter and hopes to independently record the rest of her material. Janelle will tour in venues around the Chicagoland area this summer. You dont want to miss out on this budding star.
