Jo Strogatz likes sounds. A lot. As a baby, she made “chirping noises” just to play with her voice (doctor’s official diagnosis), and by 12 she began classical vocal training before shifting to jazz. Inspired by Bobby McFerrin, she learned to treat her voice like an instrument – composing, experimenting, and improvising. 

She started posting covers and original music on YouTube as a brace-faced teenager, where she has since built a steady following of over 100K subscribers. Her music has aired on radio stations worldwide, been featured in national magazines, blogs and TV shows. She studied Music and Psychology at Tufts before earning a Graduate Certificate in Radio & Podcasting at the Salt Institute. Since then, her audio work has caught the ears of NPR, the New York Festival Radio Awards, and the International Sound Art Competition.

Now a Creative Production Assistant at Antfood and a freelance musician and audio producer, Jo can usually be found working on something crafty, chasing down the ice cream truck, and (still) chirping in her bedroom.
