Featured Friend Feed – Jeanette Berry
The group I sing with, Voices of the Pops is a collection of very talented singers who sing a variety of different genres of music when not singing with the Pops. I hope to feature each of them here on my blog. Jeanette Berry is one of them and I just had to tell you about her because she is way cool and generous as a person and OMG, talented! Get your butt over to her myspace page and listen to her tracks…..I’ll wait.
The track, “Walking Alone” cued up as I hit the site and oh how I heart it. Sultry and soulful – really good stuff.
She recently sang a set at Philadelphia’s Chris’s Jazz Cafe (which is a favorite jazz hub of mine!) and I’m sure she has engagements in New York where she resides. I have to digress here for a moment to say that I have a special admiration for people who can compose their own music, which she does.
Upcoming gigs include:
July 10th Independent Woman Show in Brooklyn NY at Club Europa
July 16th @ Camp Bisco with Tuphace (a hip hop/pop/rock/electro band she sings with)
…..and several Summer weddings – I hear you on that one!

Bio
Hi! I’m currently a singer with the Voices of the Pops, the featured vocal ensemble for Peter Nero and the Philly Pops, with performances at the Kimmel Center, and the Philadelphia Singers, the featured choral ensemble for the Philadelphia Orchestra, with performances at the Kimmel Center, Carnegie Hall, and the Saratoga Music Festival. Past engagements included the soprano fairy soloist, Midsummer Night’s Dream, with the Philadelphia Kantorei in their performance with the Pennsylvannia Ballet, the title role in Suor Angelica with the Denver Opera Company, and several performances, too many to number, with Opera Colorado, and the Choral Arts Society of Philadelphia.
I was recently in the Philadelphia Singers’ Singer Spotlight where I answered some fun questions that you can read about here.
