Enter the soulful world of jazz, where the vibrant spirit of New Orleans and the healing power of music converge. Join Joanna Pena-Bickley on a special episode of Designed By as she welcomes the incomparable Judith Owen.

Today, on Designed By, we are honored to introduce Judith Owen to our audience. Her music, a seamless fusion of drama, classical elegance, and jazz spontaneity, serves as a testament to the power of intentional design.

Hailing from a musically rich Welsh family and honing her craft in London and New Orleans, Judith's creative evolution transcends genre boundaries. Her latest album, "Come On & Get It," pays homage to trailblazing women of jazz and blues such as Julia Lee, Nellie Lutcher, Julie London, Dinah Shore, and Peggy Lee. Through this project, deeply rooted in New Orleans' musical legacy and brought to life with the Gentleman Callers, Judith exemplifies her dedication to intentional musical innovation and cultural design.

At Designed By, we believe that designing our world with purpose is the pinnacle of creativity and leadership. Judith's journey underscores this ethos, demonstrating that her music is not just about notes and rhythms; it's about living with purpose and passion. It's about finding harmony in our choices and melody in our stories. Join us as we embark on this inspiring exploration of Judith Owen's remarkable journey.
