Smoky and Soulful Vocals Higlight MS. JAZ New CD "Me Too Live"


The smoky and soulful vocals of Cincinnati's Ms. Jaz are highlighted
on her new live CD " Me Too Live" recorded in concert at the
prestigious Chez Nora's "Rooftop". Ms. Jaz is backed by her stellar
band helmed by musical director and bassist Kerry Jordan. The CD
features a great live version of the title track which is a Ms. Jaz
original. Plus, Ms. Jaz performs exciting takes on classic songs such
as "Boy From Ipenema" and Sade's "Sweetest Taboo".

Radio stations and listeners can go to www.msjaz.com and
www.cdbaby.com/cd/msjaz2 for CD ordering and all Ms. Jaz info. Ms. Jaz
plans to tour extensively in 2006 and 2007 and she will be doing a
Northeast press tour in September to promote the new CD.

Contemporary/Smooth Jazz and Soft R&B are the styles of music you will
hear when attending a Ms. Jaz performance. Be it a festival or indoor
venue, you will feel as though you are sitting front row at a national
concert.

Smoky and smooth are the words used to describe her vocals. Named
among the "Top Ten Jazz Albums" in British Columbia in 2003, and named
by Cincinnati's Citybeat Magazine as one of the "Top Local Artists to
Produce a CD on A National Level", Ms. Jaz rose to popularity with her
2002 CD release "Chances".

A Cincinnati based vocalist and writer; she has performed in various
cities across the nation. She has shared the stage with such artists
as jazz great Gumbi Ortiz, percussionist for guitar great Al Di Meola.

Many have compared her smooth vocals to the great Billie Holliday,
Sarah Vaughan, Phyllis Hyman and Anita Baker. Ms. Jaz performed
background vocals live in concert for Phil Perry, Windham Hill's hot
vocalist at Cincinnati's Aronoff Center and opened for Regina Belle at
the 1999 Applause Magazine Image Maker Awards Gala, Bobby Blue Bland,
Marion Meadows and Pieces Of A Dream. 2004 was her debut with the
Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra (CSO) as the featured artist on a Jazz
Cruise sponsored by the CSO.

She has been featured regionally with Cincinnati's own "JAMSET" a
group comprised of session and touring musicians who have played and
opened for such acts as Roy Ayers, Jean Carne, Ronnie Laws, Pieces of
a Dream, Phil Perry, Regina Belle, and most recently Bobby Blue Bland.

In addition to Jazz, she performs Adult Contemporary, Blues, and Motown.

Jaz is no stranger to live theatre. As a member of Cincinnati's
Amethyst Ensemble, she received leading roles in numerous live theatre
productions.

Jaz's first single was released on the "Essence of Now" Record Label
December 15, 2001. Her first released CD, "Chances" was recorded on
the D'Mar Entertainment Record Label.

Presently, the Ms. Jaz Fan Club is growing with membership circling
the globe. Jaz is being marketed internationally with sales in the
USA, Japan, The Netherlands, Italy, Australia, British Columbia,
Canada, Germany and The United Kingdom.
