What do you know about 'Kimberla' ?
She is a multi-talented singer, published songwriter & HS Teacher who currently resides in New York.
She has always defied easy labels and pigeonholed categorizations. She is a jazz singer. A balladeer. She does cabaret, sophisticated pop, folk, rhythm and blues. To say that she is any one of these is to miss who she really is: an artist of such remarkable talent, class and elegance that she doesn’t just defy labels, she transcends them.
Kimberla has performed with various bands and trios throughout the tri-state area. She has performed at numerous night spots in the NYC area, including BB Kings, Lucilles, Pat's Jazz Bar, The Laugh Factory, The Sugar Bar, Opia, Kavehaz, Cleopatra's Needle, Londells, Sweet Waters, Honeysuckle West, Club Scene, The Manhattan Proper, The Apollo Theatre, The Royal Palace Theatre, The Savoy Manor, Carnegie Hall, The Beacon Theatre, Danny's Skylight Room, Demmerara, Dangerfields, Club 88, The Village Gate, Steve McGraws, The Blue Angel, Indigo Blue, Roystons, Club Elite, Lady I and many others. She has also performed with various orchestras for club dates, private parties, weddings, anniversaries and Bar/Bat Mitzvahs.
'Kimberla' has written a song for Nona Hyndryx (of LaBelle) entitled “I Feel Your Love.” The tune can be found on Teruo Nakamura’s Rising Sun album which consists of various artists such as Stanley Turrentine, Hubert Laws, Roy Ayers, Tom Browne, Tawatha, James “D-Train” Williams, Nona Hyndryx, Hubert Eaves and Buddy Williams among many others. Dernksp has a publishing company with Sesac.
When 'Kimberla' is not performing, she devotes her time to studio sessions, songwriting, reading and art.

School Being Over

I am so glad school is over; just Regents Testing! This year has been challenging as well as rewarding. I wish all of the seniors in Roosevelt HS continued success in all of their endeavors.
