A dynamic jazz singer who makes old standards sizzle and gives attention to lesser known but beautiful songs--some in Spanish--a variety of jazz & torch songs & a country ballad; a unique sound with moving interpretations
Bio / Background
A fine jazz singer, the Brooks sound gives new meaning to familiar lyrics, turns old favorites into fresh, exciting musical experiences. Her classy brand of jazz bridges the gaps between generations. A smooth, mature and trained voice that delivers sultry, sophisticated, and dynamic jazz, passionate, and is known for moving Gospel and a truly vast repertoire of familiar and less well known standards, jazz tunes, R&B pop and a little Country in her own style and arrangements. 2 CDs are currently on sale, 2 more being recorded.
She is a stylistic link among an array of singers, from the earthiness of Dinah Washington & Nina Simone and the searing emotions of Billie Holliday & Sarah Vaughan to the humor and electricity of Blossom Dearie & Annie Ross and a wide range of other legendary jazz vocalists Rosemary Clooney, Carmen McCrae, Astrud Gilberto & Ella Fitzgerald .
