Originating from St. Louis, MO, as a child she performed in many venues as a modern dancer with her mother, Loyce Huston.  As a teenager, she got her first taste of fame as the vocalist with Rock 'n Roll Hall of Famer, Johnnie Johnson (a/k/a Father of Rock 'n Roll piano) who was Chuck Berry's original pianist and who the song "Johnny B. Good" was written in honor of.

• Lady J's next big break came at the age of 18 when she toured with the legendary Blues Hall of Famer, Albert "Blues Boy" King band for several years [more].   She was hired as a trumpeter and eventually moved up the ranks as horn section leader, then music director as well as opening act.  Being the only female in an all male band was most interesting.  Lady J was performing amongst stars such as Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, B.B. King, Etta James, Millie Jackson, Bo Didley and many other blues legends. Lady J performed with Albert King on the only known fully televised performance featuring him on the Maintenance Shop Blues PBS special.
  

  During her college pursuits, she attended the University of Kansas and Howard University with music and academic scholarships, and eventually graduated from the University of Redlands, CA earning a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration degree.
• Lady J now resides in Las Vegas, NV where she continues to perform as a headliner, in festivals, clubs, with her band (Lady "J" Huston & The Fireballs) and continues to record and compose original songs.  She is managed by "Z." Lipsky who is a notable and legendary writer, director, Official Blues Ambassador and highly respected representative to many talented artists.
• Advocacy: Cox TV show & hostess, "On the Go ... with Amie Jo", filmed the band at the Texas Station in support of Lady J's advocacy for Lupus, Fibromyalgia and individuals with disabilities. Lupus predominately affects women of color, especially African Americans. It can be debilitating or worse. More research and awareness is needed to find a cure, genetic links, earlier diagnoses & better treament options. The show aired on COX Cable - Channel 128 (CBS Digital). Lady J continues to provide support to these cause with speaking engagements and performances.
• This photo album shows what the power of music can do. Gifted painter, Alisa, whose Lupus almost took her life just a few weeks earlier, barely made it to the 2010 World Lupus Day event. During Lady J's performance, she suddenly appeared beside her, began dancing & was quite intrigued by the show & the trumpet. Those aware of Alisa's struggles wept in delight to see her escape into joy for if only a few moments.
