Joanna “JoJo” Levesque’s New EP NGL Out Now + New Headlining Tour
Chart-topping and multi-platinum recording artist, actress and New York Times Best Selling author, Joanna “JoJo” Levesque’s new EP NGL is out now via BMG. In conjunction, JoJo also unveiled the video for her pop-infused bop “Ready To Love.” Fans can listen to/share NGL here and watch/share the video for “Ready To Love” here.
The new music echoes many of the themes covered in her New York Times Best Selling memoir Over The Influence, which is out now via Hachette Books. From being raised by parents who were both battling addiction and depression to emerging victorious in a never-ending lawsuit with her record label, Over The Influence chronicles the steps JoJo took to rebuild. At the end of the memoir, we find JoJo stronger than ever, as she proudly proclaims on previously released singles “Porcelain” and ”Too Much To Say.” Both the book and the forthcoming EP are a testament to her resilience and a celebration of her ability to overcome adversity.
In support of the new EP, JoJo is set to embark on an extensive run of headline North American dates next month. Kicking off on February 22, her Too Much To Say Tour includes stops at New York’s Terminal 5, Los Angeles’ The Wiltern, Philadelphia’s The Fillmore, Nashville’s Marathon Music Works, Chicago’s Ramova Theatre as well as a hometown show at Boston’s Roadrunner. Tickets are available for purchase at iamjojo.com while full tour routing can be found below.
Joanna “JoJo” Levesque is a chart-topping and award-winning singer, songwriter, actress, and first-time author. At just 13 years old, JoJo burst onto the scene with her self-titled debut album, whose breakout smash “Leave (Get Out)” made her the youngest-ever solo artist to have a debut #1 single in the U.S. That album went on to sell over four million copies and became the singer’s first Platinum record, which she followed with a string of additional accomplishments, including another #1 single, “Too Little Too Late” and another Platinum album, The High Road. Since then, she’s released several critically acclaimed studio albums, EPs, and mixtapes, and started her own label, Clover Music. In 2020, JoJo‘s song with PJ Morton, “Say So,” won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song. JoJo has also appeared in movies such as Aquamarine and RV (opposite Robin Williams), reprised her role as Satine in Broadway’s Tony Award-winning Moulin Rouge! The Musical and is developing an original piece of musical theatre.
