Member Since: 4/19/2006
Band Website: kingsofmusic.com
Band Members: Soul Flower aka Tanesha Anna~Kaye & Soul Extension (Fierce)
Influences: My family is my number one source of inspiration. I'm surrounded by singers writers, storytellers and comedians. I think I'm caught in a time warp because to date Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday and Nat King Cole are my all time favourites. I'll always have love for Chaka Khan (the original Funky Diva) Modern day influences: Jill Scott, Mariah Carey, Divine Brown, Donnell Jones, Floetry, Goapele, Amel Larrieux, The Roots and everyone else who dares to be different with no apologies. Big shout out to Toronto artists doing their thing, got nuthin but love for you, lets build.
Sounds Like: Ill combo of retro and new soul fused with jazzy influences, sometimes sweet, sometimes Hip Hop ~ 100% Tanesha Anna~Kaye
Type of Label: None
