I am a singer of jazz, funk, R&B, and blues music. I perform semi-regularly with my own band in three of New York City's finest night clubs... BB King, Cafe Wha?!!, and Club-Bonafide. I have an original song that I'm in the process of finishing - it is in the music genre of funk! Prior to getting my own solo career as a singer off the ground, I have enjoyed performing and recording as a background singer with major music industry artist including Debbie Harry, Vanessa Williams, Debbie Gibson, Jocelyn Brown, Gwen McCrae, Musique, and more.
