Singer and Podcaster Jamila Ford Visits Madame Perry's Salon

Jazz/soul singer/songwriter Jamila Ford has garnered attention for her sizable singing chops. Her slight frame belies a bewitchingly powerful yet smooth mezzo-soprano voice that gets your attention and demands a second listen.  Majoring in music with an emphasis in vocal performance, Jamila attended the University of California Riverside, graduating with her BA in 2001. Since then, she has performed around the world as a solo artist and as a backing vocalist, lending her talent to the projects of artists such as Seal, Angelo (Fishbone), Melody Gardot, Spiritualized (Coachella Festival), and Bonnie Pointer (The Pointer Sisters).

If you are a professional singer, want to know how to make singing a career, or just love stories from singers on the road, then “The Working Singer” is the show for you. On this show host Jamila Ford chats with professional singers about how they make a creative living in the music business, their life lessons, and advice to other singers. Also discussed is vocal health and technique, performance anxiety, vocal coaching and pretty much all things vocal.
