Natahlie
I love to songwrite and collaborate with other musicians. I enjoy singing and sharing the gift of song, performing for churches, concerts, benefits, festivals, weddings, parties, musicals and volunteering my singing for hosptals. I came up with the name Natahlie as a solo artist in 2005. I decided this name was unique and sounds elegant.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I'm a solo artist that is seeking to play locally in Buffalo, NY doing jazz gigs until I relocate to Washington, DC. In Washington I will pursue jazz clubs as well as travel more frequently doing open mics, live showcases and record my debut album.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes. Erie Pennsylvania, Medina, Rochester NY, Niagara Falls, Toronto and Buffalo NY. I had a special time in New York City singing at an Open Mic at the Sugar Bar. I met Asford and Valerie Simpson and Stefanie Mills. Valerie Simpson thanked me for sharing my gift at the Open Mic night at her and Ashford's classy lounge and bar.
Your musical influences
Yolanda Adams, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Stevie Wonder, Sade, Michael Jackson, George Michael, Teena Marie, Ella Fitzgerald, TLC and Toni Braxton to name a few major influences.
What equipment do you use?

Anything else?
If any upcoming singing contests are featured on this Website or live performances in the New York City, Pennsylvania or Washington, DC area I would love to be notified.
