Barbara Fowlers jazzy voice sizzles Pink Hot as she sets the mood for
sultry loving in ways that only a hip sanctified songstress can. No stranger
to the music industry, Barbaras recording career began as the lead vocalist
of the trio Sinnamon, whose chart topper "Thanks to You" soared to #1 on
Billboards Dance Chart, followed by "Knocking On My Door" which reached
number 8 on the European charts. Barbaras stellar performance on her 2005
debut CD, Soulful Reflections, is an eclectic mix of R&B, Jazz and Pop that
delivers the musical goods and reveals range, originality and style.
Barbaras collaboration with producer/song writer Chris "Big Dog" Davis
was a truly organic process and their synergy has resulted in Soulful
Reflections, filled with sensuous ballads that make listeners want to slow
dance on a Saturday night and reflect on a bright Sunday morning.
Soulful Reflections treasures include "Cant Wait," and "I Guess Im In
Love With You" originals co-written by Barbara, and remakes of such timeless
classics as "Betcha By Golly Wow," "God Bless the Child," and "The Shadow of
Your Smile," which Barbara stamps with her refreshing sound. Inspired by the
likes of Chaka Khan, Aretha Franklin, and Patti Labelle, Soulful Reflections
reveals a softer side which authenticates her versatility to sing any genre
of song and make you love it.
Barbara sang her first solo at age 6 in Hartford where she won the hearts
of music listeners with her rendition of "America the Beautiful" at a school
talent performance. Her passion for all types of music has never waned. As a
voice student of the Julius Hartt School of Music and the Hartford
Conservatory, Barbaras raw talent was refined into the beautiful instrument
it is today. She has shared the stage with music giants, such as Luther
Vandross, New Kids on the Block, Evelyn "Champagne" King, Teddy Pendergrass,
Phyllis Hyman, Angie Martinez, Lil Mo, Monique, Ray Chew & The Crew and the
Ricky Minor Band. She has performed for audiences in Connecticut, Boston,
New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Florida and Atlanta. Barbara has won fans
by bowling over what is perhaps the countrys toughest audience at Amateur
Night at the famous Apollo Theater, earning her the title of "Super Top Dog
" in 2001. She was subsequently invited to appear before a national TV
audience on Show Time at the Apollo in 2002.
Barbaras new music invites us all to step into love and to "soulfully"
rock to the fabulous background beats of Chris "Big Dog" Davis, Guest
artist, Kim Waters, plays a "soulful" saxophone on "God Bless the Child."
"Soulful Reflections" is Pink Hot.
