Jomanda - NJ House Trio

Jomanda is a female RB/House vocal trio from New Jersey. Members include Joanne Thomas, Cheri Williams and Renee Washington. They had several hits on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart during the first half of the 1990s, including "Got a Love for You," which hit number one in 1991. It also crossed over to the mainstream, going top 40 (peaking at number 40) on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.

They are best remembered for that song, now considered a house music classic. In 1993, they returned to number one on the dance chart with "Don't You Want Me," a track credited to Felix featuring Jomanda. A comeback by the group along with a new single for a forthcoming album was rumoured to be fact during 2002. No new music has surfaced from Jomanda since the rumour.

Group member Joanne Thomas died in October 2003 after a three year battle with colon cancer. The song "Make My Body Rock" appeared on the soundtrack to Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. This song is also featured on DANCE! Online, a multiplayer online casual rhythm game.
