Biography
Janis entered the music business with a bang as a hit songwriter for such artists as Trisha Yearwood, Reba McEntire, Alabama, Steve Wariner, The Whites, and many more. Even though Janis' success has been primarily in country music, she has always had a deep connection with jazz and swing music. One of the key hits she wrote (with Rick Carnes and Chip Hardy) was ''Hangin' Around,'' a bluegrass-swing song recorded by The Whites and Dean Martin. The song helped bring mainstream awareness to the jazz-influenced style.

After forming a duo with husband and fellow songwriter Rick Carnes, Janis was signed as an artist to Elektra Asylum by the Jimmy Bowen (one of the most influential figures in the Nashville music scene). The duo followed Bowen to Warner Brothers and then to MCA Records, having success with self-penned singles like,''Poor Girl,'' and, ''Does He Ever Mention My Name.''She returned to writing songs for others, and found herself penning more and more jazz tunes - until she could no longer deny the lifelong desire to write and sing jazz like her favorite composers and singers of old. The opportunity to sing from the catalogue of the mighty Hoagy Carmichael was too good to let pass. And when PeerMusic's Digital Pressure label offered to create a project that would blend some of Hoagy's finest jazz compositions with some of the finest jazz tunes Janis had worked on - well, it was like a dream come true.'

'Hoagy 'n Me'' is brought to life by Janis' definitive, warm, clear vocal stylings. Her style is at one moment soft and sensual and the next thick and powerful. Each of the original compositions matches the impact and beauty of the Carmichael standards. This CD celebrates standards that are part of the backbone of jazz and evolves with new songs that yearn to remember the craft of the past and break into the future.
