Quotes
The blending of hip-hop and folk is not a fusion to be avoided, at least not under Arem's adept fingers. Nothing could be more American, and, if anything, Arem's music is a love letter to America. Her music is...a celebration of those that inspire her and the adventure of a young songwriter's quest for identity.
Frank Rivera, CD Baby
Arem's debut studio release greets us with all the freshness and promise of a new voice on the scene, but evidently someone who has been honing her craft for years....Well worth the wait, this album displays Arem's exquisite musical ability, intellect and literary sensibilities.
Shana Scudder, The Feminist Review
Not just 'another girl with a guitar", Jocelyn stands out from the crowd. With her rich, velvety voice and top-notch songwriting, this woman is at the top of my playlist. Jocelyn demonstrates an exceptional ability, and her activism and commitment to music are stellar.
Karen Olch, Acoustic Junction, KRVM-FM, Eugene, Oregon
I first heard Jocelyn at Fireside After Hours Concert at Camp Louise in Cascade Maryland. It was her sweet voice that really got my attention. The sincerity of her words and her dedication to being a great songwriter I believe will win her an audience of true dedication. I am one of those fans present and future.
SONIA (Disappear Fear)
Beautiful music! You have an awesome voice.
Jeffrey Huang, Pilobolus Dance Theater
A voice sweet and low yet deep and real; songs like "Guthrie's Lament" strike you right in the soul. Reminiscent of popular contemporaries Ani DiFranco and Fiona Apple, Jocelyn Arem brings another earthy "something" to her music that is harder and harder to find these days. I can easily close my eyes when listening to "What the Mirror Said" and pretend I'm in a different time, when folk songs were anthems and we all cared about the world around us.

The book features Ensler's essays alongside Tenneson's portraits of V-Day activists, many of them well-known celebrities, with powerful statements and quotations from the subjects.
Proceeds from the book will benefit V-Day.
