Coming Soon: New Classical & Folk Albums

Two new recording projects are on the horizon:

The first is a collaborative classical album with her husband, composer, violinist, and thereminist Darryl Kubian. This collection will feature new chamber music works for violin and theremin, alongside original compositions by Darryl performed with their colleagues from the New Jersey Symphony, Juilliard, and the American Brass Quintet.

The second is a folk EP, featuring a vibrant mix of traditional melodies from Scotland, Spain, and Scandinavia, interwoven with JoAnna’s own original tunes and songs.

Stay tuned - release dates for late 2025 and early 2026 will be announced soon.

The Diviner’s Path — forthcoming from Llewellyn

Outside of the musical world, JoAnna is also the author of The Diviner’s Path: A Nature-Led Approach to Divination, releasing June 8 from Llewellyn Worldwide. Her work in divination grows from the same deep listening that shapes her life as a musician: attention to symbol, pattern, intuition, place, and the living world.
