Active in all aspects of the business, she is a performer, producer, teacher, voice-over talent, commercial singer and recording artist with over 25 recordings in her discography. She co-owns the Oshkosh-based Steel Moon Recording Studio. In 1995 she developed the independent record label, Stellar Records with her husband, Tom Washatka.

Her soulful, heartfelt readings, with perfectly in tune, pure voice 'from heaven' brings the music to us on a silver platter, and really hits home. Brilliant arrangements, with her wonderful jazz players, gives each song its own personality while maintaining the integrity and overall message of the music they play with magnificent interplay!” -- Gene Bertoncini, Jazz Guitarist Janet will be joined by her long-time musical partner Tom Theabo (guitar), Mark Urness (bass) and Ryan Korb (percussion).
