ARTIST PROFILE
Jodie Gummer is a Kāpiti-based singer-songwriter and seasoned performer known for her smooth vocals, skilled guitar work, and ability to captivate audiences across a wide range of musical styles. With a background in contemporary music performance and mentorship from some of Aotearoa’s most respected musicians, Jodie blends technical finesse with heartfelt storytelling. Her performances span acoustic ballads to upbeat party anthems, drawing on blues, pop, classic hits, and soul influences from the ’60s through to today.
Equally at home performing solo, as a duo, or with her energetic band The Stowaways, Jodie has become a trusted and sought-after live act for weddings, corporate events, and music venues throughout the Wellington region. Her setlists are as diverse as her audiences, often including everything from Tracy Chapman and Amy Winehouse to Ed Sheeran and Top 40 favourites. Whether delivering an intimate aisle song or filling the dance floor, Jodie’s presence is consistently warm, professional, and memorable.
