Cynthia Luna Vazquez |
is a native San Franciscan, who by birthright has spent many years dancing in the streets. Cynthia, (aka Ms. Luna Tique) believes that making art is synonymous with making magic. She has directed Wikka Wimmin, a dance theater troupe that drew its creative inspiration from feminine archetypes. She has a "Mistress of Arts" degree from the Inter-Arts Center of SFSU. As a member of JouJou, she enjoys the challenge of coordinating her vocal chords to the rest of her neuromuscular system.

| Jen Tait |
is originally from Atlanta, Georgia. As a toddler, she started singing high-pitched everythings including "Snow White" and the "Queen of the Night" aria from Mozart's opera "The Magic Flute." She enjoyed squealing at the top of her lungs with her childhood best friend while jumping on a trampoline. She has performed music ranging from classical to gospel to improv singing, but started JouJou to explore new vocal directions with some fun gals. She also sings improv with two groups, Bella and Miso. Jen has degrees in architecture and filmmaking and, as Madam Z, Palmreader, is available for parties.
