Joëlle Jones has been hard at work in the comics mecca of Portland, OR with several independent projects. Recently, she worked with ‘Dr. Horrible’ writer Zack Whedon on a sold-out issue revealing the back-story of Neil Patrick Harris’s character. Jones is poised to become one of the industry’s hottest talents with the release of ‘Troublemaker’, written by New York Times bestselling author Janet Evanovich.
He may be known as “Troublemaker,” but Josh Kouzomis has done some pretty amazing things with his music such as teaching DJ workshops in the slums and ghettos of Africa during his participation in the HOPE Campaign. Josh was also a performer at the Manifest Hope Inauguration Party in Washington D.C. and previously held a past residency at Wasted Spaces in the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas. With an extensive background in the industry, dating back to his college DJ and music director days at Ohio University’s ACRN, Josh has continued to push the boundaries and enter new realms along his musical voyage. On July 28, 2009, Josh released his first official solo project, The Maestro. The album is a true reflection of Josh as an artist and shows his ability to steer the momentum of producing and remixing popular tracks such as Lincoln Park’s Runaway into creating his own masterpiece. China Shop was able to catch up with Troublemaker as he was taking a break from working on his latest project, involving Benji Madden.
