    GDay from Hobart, Tasmania. Only discovered Canen / jo next door today and it's been my soundtrack at work all day. I forwarded Lovesong to my best friend in Denver CO, and she loved it. It was her soundtrack as she went to sleep after a very stressful day. Just a shout out to show the global reach you and your music have and the relevance of what you did then still carries forward, so thank-you.

I just stumbled upon your music today (first song: Ain't No Sunshine - wow!), and I am spending the rest of the day watching every Canen/Jo video I can find. (And texting your video links to my friends!) I will have to hunt down your albums, too. You are going places, Jo, no doubt about it!

    Today I got to come home for lunch; no one was home so I watched music videos on CZcams as I ate. Beth Hart then Joss Stone then Joss with Robbie Williams singing Angels which put a tear in my eye from shear enjoyment, then in the spirit of discovery I clicked on someone called Canen singing Ain't No Sunshine. Very nice, impressive, but this kid is 12yo in the video and I wonder what she might be like now with a bit more wear on her soul. So I look for something more recent hoping she's got a little bluesy 'cause that's what my old soul relates to and I click on He Sleeps Lightly...
    Devastated. I cried all the way through. Initially at the horror and because I am just so sorry that so many beautiful human beings suffer such cruelty. But later because I was so proud of you all finding a voice and speaking out. Rise up.
    So I find myself here. Looking good, sister. Liked, subscribed, gonna click on Smile; it seems appropriate.

    You've got a great voice and talent for making a song your own. It was that sound and very obvious interaction with the music which got me to subscribe to your Canen channel in the first place. It's great to see that you're still keen on music to where you're studying it for the future. All the best for what is to come.

Greetings for your new steps and thanks a lot for your music ❤️🎶

    Wishing you great success ...in however you want that to look. NEVER stop writing! I adore the Jazz with your voice. Singing is like breathing, that much I understand, so that's a no-brainer. Keep that going too!🎉 Enjoy the life you have. ❤ That's what I would say to my 20-something self. Keep moving forward no matter what lies ahead.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift. In my opinion, you are a unique talent in the class of Nora Jones and the late Eva Cassidy. Best wishes for your continued success and complete happiness.

    Thanks so much for the update. I watch all kinds of American Idol. and Americas Got Talent, that sometimes an amazing person with a great voice will disappear and many people wonder where did they go? My gift was sports, but I had to train so hard to stay on top, it almost killed me. When I see someone like you who has a natural gift of singing, I am so jealous, LOL. I like R & B music the best, but like jazz too. I think you are perfect for jazz singing, but when you can sing, you probably can sing anything good. I will check on your videos some more, loved the Bill Withers song, I have had that CD for years.
