With over 20 years experience in the music industry, you realize from the first listen that Gloria knows how to use her voice to navigate her audience through a maze of emotions.

There have been many artists who have influenced Gloria’s approach to communicating a song including Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, Sarah Vaughn, Natalie Cole, Anita Baker, Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin and Tina Turner.

In 1989 Gloria released her first solo recording, He Loves Me, and followed up that release with Forever With You in 1996.
