BongoGirl's Vocal Styles

Bongogirl has a five octave vocal range, and sings in a dizzying array of styles and genres.

Her musical inspirations are as varied as her love of music.

When singing jazz she is compared to Cleo Laine and Billie Holiday.

As a rock singer she shakes the joint with Janis Joplin/Tina Turner power vocals.

In R&B she embodies the range of Patti Labelle.
She performs classical and opera with the same sweet & strong soprano range of Sarah Brightman.
In the dance genre she is likened to Annie Lennox with a Cranberries edge.
She performs folk and alternative with Sarah McLachlan prettiness, Celtic with traditional heart and Reggae with one foot in Jamaica.
And through it all, she throws inYma Sumac inspired vocal flares adding eclectic, five-octave personal touches to everything she sings.

Then there's her percussion kit. Like the rubbermaid guy with PMS, Bongogirl pops, pounds, rolls, slaps, crashes, bangs and bounces across her congas, bongos, chimes, bells, blocks and cymbals.
