Biography
The group name Jomanda was created by combining the names of the two original members, Joanne Thomas and Amanda Askins. After the group was formed, Cheri Williams joined the group. Later, when Amanda chose not to sign the contract, she was replaced by Renee Washington.
Jomanda had several hits on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart during the first half of the 1990s, including "Got a Love for You," which reached No. 1 in 1991. The song also crossed over to the mainstream, going top 40 (peaking at No. 40) on the US Billboard Hot 100.
In 1993, the trio returned to No. 1 on the dance chart with "Don't You Want My Love", a track credited to Felix featuring Jomanda.
The song "Make My Body Rock" appeared in Dance! Online, a multiplayer online casual rhythm game, and in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Joanne Thomas' death
Group member Joanne Thomas died in October 2003, after a three-year battle with colon cancer.[citation needed]
