Bio
............ ....Myspace Layouts.. at Pimp-My-Profile.com / ..Red Glory.. / ..Comments.. .. ..............Contact Tables.... Every day when I wake up, I count my blessings because I love what I do. I started singing at five and no one has been able to shut me up since! My dad, ....Vince Fanelli...., is an accomplished singing, sax playin’, piano playin’ composer. And I mean smoking! He passed on many tricks, shortcuts and roadmaps that I have carried with me on my journey through the music bidness. Thanks, Dad. And I guess I should mention that he also bestowed upon me his twisted sense of humor. .... I’ve worked with a lot of diverse acts. One of my favorites is when I used to sing with ....Delaney Bramlett..... Delaney sings with so much heart and passion. He taught Eric Clapton how to sing. And he taught me a few things, too. We used to have all kinds of cool folk come out to the gigs. Sean Lennon, Phoebe Snow, Mick Fleetwood, Jon Bon Jovi, Rita Coolidge were some of Delaney’s friends that used to come and hang out and/or sit in with us. .... I've done some touring with ....Connie Stevens..... She is a hoot and a fun loving, vibrant woman, and I always had a big blast on the road with her. .... I sing background vocals with my bud, Rosemary Butler, for R&B classic soul concerts put on by ....Pacific Concert Group, with Art Laboe..... My friend, Chuck Crews is the MD (he is amazing) and through these concerts, I’ve had the pleasure of singing with a lot of the old school R&B folks, including the Manhattans, Heat Wave, Wild Cherry, Deniece Williams, Gene Chandler, and many more. .... I did a lot of country recording work for iconic producer and promoter ....Ray Ruff...., who I dearly loved. I was on his in-house recording staff, along with Carlette West, Chris Pinnick, Chet McCracken, Will MacGregor, Bobby Furgo, James Burton, and a host of other incredibly talented musicians. Ray died in the fall of 2005 and he is very missed by all of us. He was one of my all time favorite smart asses and I miss him saying, “Ya’ll sounded great except for the redhead…She cain’t sing…” with a big old sly smile, as I stepped out of the recording booth. Ray, it isn’t fair that you left us so soon. .... My girl group, ....Earth Angels...., performs in town and throughout the US, doing retro 40s and 50s/60s shows. Deborah Tyler and Albina are my partners in crime on this project. We get great reviews wherever we go. Check us out at www.earthangelsmusic.com. .... I have a little power trio, ....The Dirrty Boys...., that SLAMS!! We play rock, blues and r&b material. My fabulous friend, Chris Pinnick, is the driving force behind the band and I tell you, his playing really gets me inspired. .... I sing in many styles, including blues, rock, jazz, country and pop. I’ve done a ton of jingles, sessions, showcases and casuals. .... I am also a vocal instructor at ....Musician’s Institute..... There is a lot of buzz and creativity there. I love walking down the hallway and hearing everyone busy at work on their projects, from the different rooms. Oh, yeah, and tattoos, there's a lot of ‘em at M.I. I can’t tell you how much I love working there. I give ....Private Lessons...., as well, and my own roster of students is continually growing. .... ......I have recorded with:.... ..Anna Nicole Smith, Exposed (movie soundtrack).. ..Benny Mardones, Recording Artist.. ..Billy Thorpe, Aussie Recording Artist.. ..CBI Records, Philadelphia.. ..Chet McCracken, Producer/Recording artist (Doobie Brothers).. ..Chris Pinnick, Recording Artist (Chicago).. ..David Briggs, Producer (Neil Young).. ..Days of Our Lives, TV Series.. ..Delaney Bramlett, Recording Artist (Delaney & Bonnie).. ..Emmy Awards.. ..Giorgio Moroder, Producer (Donna Summer, Blondie).. ..Jim Steinman, Producer (Meatloaf, Bonnie Tyler).. ..Jonathan Wolff, TV Composer (Seinfeld, Will & Grace).. ..Jude Cole, Recording Artist.. ..Kelly Moneymaker, Recording Artist (Expose).. ..Melrose Place, TV Series.. ..My Wildest Dreams, TV Series.. ..Oasis, Recording Artists.. ..Peter Reckell, Actor/Recording Artist (Days of Our Lives).. ..Pat Boone, Recording Artist.. ..Radio Disney Hit Factory.. ..Ray Ruff, Producer/Promoter (Van Morrison, Hank Williams Jr).. ..Richard Levinson, Songwriter/Performer .. ..Russell Means, Actor/Recording Artist.. ..Steve Porcaro, Producer, Recording Artist (Toto).. ..Thing Called Love, Feature Film.. ..Timothy Leary, Professor/Poet/Recording Artist.. ..Tommy the UK Cowboy, European Recording Artist.. ..Tommy Peltier & The Plastic Theatre Art Band, Recording Artist.. ..Tony Brantley, Recording Artist.. ..Various Jingles, including Nickelodeon, Michelob, Ralph's & Wella.. .....and many more..... .... ....I have performed with:.... ..Aalon (Rock & Roll Gangster).. ..American Ballet Theatre.. ..Al Wilson (Show & Tell).. ..Barbara Lewis (Baby I'm Yours).. ..Barbara Lynn (You'll Lose a Good Thing).. ..Barbara Mason (Yes I'm Ready).. ..Billy Paul (Me & Mrs Jones).. ..Charles Crews (The Cascades, MD for PCG, & many more...).. ..Connie Stevens, Actress/Entertainer.. ..Delaney Bramlett (Only You Know & I Know).. ..Delegation (Oh Honey).. ..Deniece Williams (Let's Hear It For the Boy).. ..Eddie Holman (Hey, There Lonely Girl).. ..Emmy Awards.. ..Gene Chandler (Duke of Earl).. ..Governor's Ball, Academy Awards.. ..GQ (Disco Night).. ..Hal David (lyricist w/ Burt Bacharach).. ..Heatwave (Boogie Nights).. ..Joe Bataan (Ordinary Guy).. ..Jon Bon Jovi (Livin' on a Prayer).. ..Kelly Moneymaker (of Expose).. ..Larry Raspberry & The Gentrys (Keep on Dancin').. ..Les Brown and His Band of Renown.. ..Little Anthony (Ooh Baby Baby).. ..Merrilee Rush (Angel of the Morning).. ..Mick Fleetwood (Fleetwood Mac).. ..Musicians for UNICEF.. ..Percy Sledge (When a Man Loves a Woman).. ..Peter Reckell, Actor/Recording Artist.. ..Peter Rivera, from Rare Earth (Get Ready).. ..Phoebe Snow (Poetry Man).. ..Robbie Krieger (of The Doors).. ..SHARE Awards.. ..The Delegation (Oh Honey).. ..The Manhattans (Let's Just Kiss & Say Goodbye).. ..The Tokens (The Lion Sleeps Tonight).. ..Trini Lopez (If I Had a Hammer).. ..Wild Cherry (Play That Funky Music).. .....and many more....... .. .. ..

Influences
For me, it’s all about the passion. I always say I’d rather hear someone singing out of tune and out of time, with tremendous passion, than someone who has perfect pitch and great technique but no depth. Haha, you probably wouldn’t expect to hear that from a vocal coach, but it’s my truth. I am just going to give a listing of folks that I love, because truly, I'm just influenced by whatever I like, and that's a lotta music... .... ..Rock:.. Jimmy Barnes, Chris Cornell, Aerosmith, Guns N Roses, AC/DC, Tina Turner, Janis Joplin, Dilana Smith, Evanescence.... ..Blues, Gospel & R&B:.. Etta James, Delaney Bramlett, David Morgan, Bonnie Raitt, Chaka Kahn, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, TaTa Vega, Bessie Smith.... ..Jazz:.. Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Rebecca Perris, Anita O’Day, Nancy King.... ..Country:.. George Jones, Lyle Lovett, Hank Jr and Sr, Marty Stuart, Lacy J Dalton.... I have some pretty stellar local musician friends that I love to hear sing and/or play, too…Kelly Moneymaker, Janelle Sadler, Aja Kim, Delbi Smart, Michael Stanton, David and Alicia Morgan, Chris Pinnick (though Chris doesn’t sing, he plays guitar and makes me extraordinarily happy when he’s doing it), Mike Campbell, the list goes on and on and on…

It depends on what I'm singing. I'm kind of chameleon-like...
