About Jocelyn Brown:
Jocelyn Brown is a revered vocalist in the world of Soul, Disco, Funk
& House music from her work with Salsoul Records, Inner Life,
Incognito, Todd Terry, MAW’s NuYorican Soul & her own solo work.

Jocelyn Brown is a woman with a powerful, soul shaking voice that
reaches out with extended arms and engulfs your musical desires.

“I Got The Power” a sample of Jocelyn’s voice Snap’s international one
single “The Power”, totally astonished the Artiste herself when
arriving in a club for a performance and hearing her voice repeatedly.
She witnessed, first hand, the audience’s response to the powerful
vocals featured on this hit. “I think it is great that people love and
use my voice”, says Jocelyn, “as long as I can make people happy with
it, I feel like I am doing my job!”

And doing her job she is! In fact this seasonal musical veteran began
singing in public at the age of three in the church, and at gig’s with
her family. She then first gained national attention with the release
of her debut album for Warner Brothers Records “One From The Heart” in
1984. With cuts produced by Jellybean Benitez and the teams of Hubert
Eaves/ James Batton and Russ Titleman/Rob Mounsey, Jocelyn featured
eight powerful cuts which include hits like “Love’s Gonna Get You” and
the perennial Club Classical “Somebody Else’s Guy” written by Jocelyn
and her sister Annette.

However, as modest as she is, Jocelyn has established quite an
impressive portfolio working with stellar names such as Luther
Vandross, Bette Midler, John Lennon, Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson,
Roberta Flack, George Benson, Teddy Pendergrass, Culture Club, Masters
At Work & many others.
