Two gifted individuals who take vocal harmony to new heights. Jaxonville perform also with younger sister Andrea in a three part harmony group. This has always been considered meant to be and it seems like forever as the girls have been writing songs and performing together since an early age. They are well accomplished songwriters and have performed their own songs at many established venues over the past few years including The Lord Mayors Golden Casket, Channel 7 Xmas Carols at the River Stage in December 2005 in front of audience of 50,000 a very memorable moment for them.
In 2005 Jaxonville were noticed busking and performing in Tamworth and invited to perform their original compositions on the ABC Trailer in Bi-Centennial Park and were the only New Unknown young Act invited for an interview and live performance to be broadcasted direct to air on ABC/New England alongside very talented Major Signed Artists and bands on the same stage. Jaxonville have also had numerous appearances and performances: 2005/2006 Caboolture Qut Urban Country Music Festival, Gympie Music Muster, Tamworth Country Music Festival, Mud bulls & Music and in the USA to date. Both girls are also very talented individual vocalists as well as a duet act, well known for their harmonies. Music has been a lifetime event and individually each vocalist shines but with their combined voices is nothing short of dazzling!
To date they have released a few songs from their latest record which have received an extensive amount of airplay on Country Music Radio.
