Somehow, the family didn’t know what they had in the way of a tiny, blues singer until a sixth-grade talent show when mom was “shocked to hear that voice come out of her. To this day, people see her come out on stage, not expecting her to sound like a big, black woman — but she does.”.

For years she “slung diamonds” by day in posh retail jewelry stores and collected gigs by night, in Salt Lake City and then the Bay Area. Along the way she married the owner of the Poor House Bistro, a live music haven in downtown San Jose, and developed into a popular, full-time chanteuse.
