About the performer:
The Dynamic Miss Faye Carol is known as an icon in the Bay Area and beyond, highly
regarded for her powerful voice, astonishing versatility, and gift of connecting with her
audience. Equally at home in jazz, blues, R&B, gospel, funk, latin, and hip-hop, she has
developed her own authentic sound and unique delivery, delighting audiences young and old
across the globe. After beginning her career with gospel music, Faye Carol made her name
singing with Oakland blues and funk legend Johnny Talbot & De Thangs in the 1960s. She
soon formed her own trio and gained fame in San Francisco's jazz, blues, and cabaret clubs
of the 1970s and 80s. Over a 60-year career in music, this living legend has developed her
own unique acoustic sound and style in Black Music - drawing from funk, blues, gospel, and
straight ahead swingin' - and cultivated an audience that remains as diverse as her uplifting
music. She has maintained a high level of musicianship in her groups, mentoring some of the
Bay Area's brightest young talent including Benny Green, Marcus Shelby, and her daughter
Kito Kamili. Her vocal proteges include international superstars Kehlani and Ledisi.
