Classical crossover group CJA (pronounced see-jay) consists of Joanne Jolee (vocals and keyboard), and her three daughters, Christine (violin), Leiticia (vocals and violin) and Krystle (vocals and cello). CJA's musical style is an alchemic blend of European pop, fused with the likes of J.S. Bach and Scarlatti, Celtic folk songs, traditional Irish fiddling and spiritual and poetic influences, as well as disco, opera and techno-industrial elements.

CJA was nominated for "Best Female Band" at the Arizona Infusion Music Awards in 2001 and was named "Best Pop Band in Arizona" as part of the Dream-to-Reality Artists Awards program in 2002, the same year its first album was released.

CJA has appeared on Arizona TV-12 and TV-3, has performed the national anthem live at events such as the Coors Monster Trucks and Jet Cars Show (ESPN) and at NCAA men's basketball games (Fox Sports), and has given concerts at Worldport International Music Festival, the Scottsdale Festival of the Arts, the Arizona Cotton Festival, the Arizona State Fair, the Fiesta Mall, Alice Cooperstown, the Hard Rock Café, and many more.

In 2000, CJA founded Pinnacle American Records, an independent label, and began offering secure Internet downloads to its fans. CJA has released two albums, gone on tour and sells its music and merchandise at http://www.pinnacleamericanrecords.com.
