Ava Lemert: the Singing Saxstress

About Me

A native of Southern California, Ava Lemert was submerged in music from birth having a Mother and two elder sisters who were active musicians in the household to influence her. So, it was no surprise that by age 7, Ava was producing her own “radio programs” including her own DJ personna “Kay Kay Dee Jay” on her cassette tape recorder. At age 11 Ava was writing music and submitting her compositions for voice, clarinet (her first school-taught instrument) and guitar to youth talent shows. In High School, Ava would record her keyboard parts, alto saxophone, drum machine, guitar and vocals into her make-shift ping-pong recording system, consisting of a boom box, 4 track cassette recorder and radio shack microphone.

A unique lady of many talents, Ms. Lemert is not only a prolific songwriter, she is a versatile vocalist, producer and multi-instrumentalist. What also comes across about Ava when she performs, is her warm, vivacious personality that draws people of all ages in, including small children!

Ava's music has garnered 10 GRAMMY Award entries (as of 2024) and she is a member of the Recording Academy's Songwriters & Composers Wing, the Producers & Engineers Wing, as well as an Advocate for Music Creators, (GRAMMY District Advocacy Day).
