HOT SAMBA ON A COLD NIGHT
She is charming singer with a good voice- …but what topped the night for me was the singing in Portuguese which I find the most beautiful language to sing in…. A lovely night that warmed the root of one’s heart in the cold of the night.

She has already enriched the Icelandic musical scene..Jussanam voice is bright and beautiful , perfect for this kind of music. She is no less that others popular and Bossa Nova singers like Invete Sangalo and Rosa Passos in her graceful and sensual interpretation.It is welcomed that the winds of destiny have blown fresh Bossa nova currents to Iceland and it will be interesting to monitor Jussanam in the near future.

The Festival in Isafjordur, Vid Djupid is over...many great musicians were performing there showing their best but...my favorite was her, the stunning Jussanam Dejah (June 2012 ) - Skúli Mennski web site
Brazilian singer Jussanam and some of the leading Icelandic jazz musicians with a good Brazilian Jazz album. Jussanam is a cool song Lady. Her voice and singing style suit this music perfectly..the great O Telefonema carried out lounge music..Overall, this is a fine album with Jussanam... the album is very well done and flows well throughout. - Frettabladid Newspaper - by Trausti Juliusson
“Jussanam reveals herself as an accomplished composer. She co-wrote the sambas “Amanha é Carnaval”, the Brazilian flavored jazz songs “Verão BH”, and “Quer Saber?”, and the interesting composition “O Telefonema”. This track is the jazzier one on the release.” - Wilbert Sostre - Latin Jazz Network
