Biography

Crossing Jordan - Joanne Lurgio

"Believe me when I say Crossing Jordan is more than just a new recording project. There is no doubt it was a special calling for me to create some much needed peace & comfort in the best way I know how, through music; even its timing was beyond my control. When you get a "calling" you have to respond. Crossing Jordan is my response to that call."
Wishing You Love Peace & Comfort,
Joanne
