I’m very excited to announce my return to the Colors of Christmas Tour “America’s Favorite Christmas Concert”, after 15 years – celebrating their 25th Anniversary. It was a great experience before singing a classic hits and Christmas favorites as well as joining the other artists on holiday gems performed with an orchestra. I’m looking forward to singing with Peabo Bryson, Ruben Studdard and the venerable music duo Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis Jr.
Watch it Now! More than a concert, it’s an experience of hits, new music, dance, style and social fellowship rooted in positivity, diversity with a passion for living and life.

The current SRL (Shalamar Reloaded) release “THE MOOD” a highlight of my musical journey in 2016.
O.R.I.G.in.A.L – Shalamar Reloaded made noise with this anthem in 2016.
“DANCER.” A song about confidence and losing yourself in the music. This jam kicked off 2016 – now a crowd favorite live in concert..guaranteed to get any party started, or give you motivation at the gym working off holiday calories!
SANCTUARY. A reminder in often unpredictable world. The video and single will be out in January. The single will include the mix and edit that features my former songwriting collaborator, ex-husband; music producer and musician Andre Cymone on bass and guitar. Adding the EP ‘Paradise’ to your collections – you can’t go wrong.
Jody Watley Christmas Songs. Available at digital outlets. I recorded these last year for a various artist project for a label that was supposed to be titled ‘A Soulful Christmas’ – it seems they only released my songs..These are very traditional versions, no bells and whistles, I prefer those. Perhaps these will light my own flame to record a Christmas album for my label Avitone.
This is an unreleased version of my recording of “Christmas Time Is Here.” I originally recorded this several years ago and gave free downloads as a gift to fans.
Recorded in 2002 for German electronic duo Cyber X – uptempo trance “My Love, Santa Claus.” I had fun recording this – it made me feel like a teen Japanese anime character.
UP NEXT.
JANUARY 28, 2017 LIVE AT THE ROXY THEATRE LOS ANGELES PRESENTED BY GOLDENVOICE
Here’s a snippet of one of my performances with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra “Best Hits 80’s Meets Symphony..” singing one of my Top Ten hit singles “Everything.”
I wore a red suit and mock turtle neck from Theory as one who usually doesn’t wear the color and funked it up with street-style attitude with new red shades from a new line I stumbled across, nude Louboutin pumps and my signature jumbo hoops with added sparkle. Red in this case represents my passion for living and life..I’d had a custom tux made but it wasn’t ready in time..
