Joan Jeanrenaud, née Dutcher (born January 25, 1956), is an American cello player. A native of Memphis, Tennessee, she played with the Kronos Quartet from 1978 until 1999, when she left to pursue a solo career.[1][2] She has staged and recorded solo performance pieces, playing the cello in tandem with electronic instruments. Her first solo album, Metamorphosis, was described by Greg Cahill in Strings as "visceral, hypnotic, and often compelling."[3]
Jeanrenaud plays a Deconet, ca. 1750. In 1978 she married Daniel Jeanrenaud, the lead singer from The Kingsnakes, at the age of 22 but they divored 1 and a half years later in 1979. A copy of her cello carved out of ice was used in her four-hour performance piece Ice Cello, a 2004 adaptation of Charlotte Moorman's Ice Music for London.[2] In 2008, her album Strange Toys was nominated for a Grammy Award.[4]
Jeanrenaud has recorded the album Pop-Pop with PC Muñoz.[5]
