July 15, 2015I was able to hire Jocelyn to sing at my wedding ceremony last year and it took my wedding ceremony to a whole new level. Her presence brought a much more sincere and personal touch to my ceremony. My songs choices were performed beautifully and her talent with a guitar was top notch. I would totally recommend Jocelyn to those thinking about adding that personal touch to your next sentimental event. It was one of the best decisions I made! My guests were blown away!

A singer songwriter local to the Annapolis area, Jocelyn Faro draws from Pop, Rock, and Folk.
From a young age, Jocelyn was influenced by artists such as Norah Jones, John Mayer, Counting Crows, and Maroon Five. At the age of fifteen, she started playing the guitar and songwriting. She quickly became involved in the school music program, performing in several talent shows and showcases, before branching out to local open mics. In late July 2013, she released a demo CD of cover songs featuring artists who have influenced and inspired her as a growing musician. Her debut original album “Between the Lines” was released in August 2014.
Although new to the music scene, Jocelyn has had many accomplishments such as opening for Andy Grammer, indie band Hellogoodbye and country artists Adam Craig and Chris Cavanaugh. She can be seen regularly performing in Maryland metropolitan venues, and has also been a part of events such as Frozen Harbor, Gettysburg Rocks, and Rock Your Bones at Rams Head Live.
Alongside performing, Jocelyn is active member in the community. She has performed in fundraisers and events for the Avergan Foundation, Relay for Life, ALS Association and Four Diamonds Fund. Jocelyn also participates in Musicians on Call, providing live in room entertainment for patients at local hospitals.
