Biography
Lorenzana was discovered by Filipino composer-singer-manager Nonong 'Dero' Pedero in 1984, who soon took the young singer under his management, employing her talent for commercial jingles. Prior to Lorenzana's formal foray into local Philippine entertainment, she front-acted for international acts held locally, such as Gloria Estefan and the Miami Sound Machine, Menudo (the former group of Ricky Martin) and the British jazz ensemble Shakatak.[2] The following year, she was launched in a show billed as JoAnne: Her First Time to announce the entry of the pop artist into the music industry.[3]
Lorenzana represented the Philippines in a few song festivals, namely the Fifth Asean Song Festival held in Singapore[4] and the 1st ASIA Song Festival, held in Japan and aired on NHK channel.[5] Moreover, she sang the nationalistic song "Bayan Ko" which she revived in 1987 for PLDT and won for her the 'Best Revival Recording' for AWIT AWARDS (the Philippines' version of the Grammys),[6] the song she also performed back in 1992, during the inauguration of Fidel V. Ramos as the 12th President of the Republic of the Philippines.
Lorenzana's albums include Between Seasons (2009),[7] which was recorded and mixed in the U.S., released under the NeoMONDE Productions label and distributed in the Philippines under Universal Records Philippines Inc..
She is a member of the Filipino Artists' Organization for Singers/Musicians.[8] In the U.S., she is a member (as a composer-lyricist) of ASCAP, the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.
