“Just do your life -- because you're dead a long time. Live your life. Enjoy your life. Do the best that you can"
--Antoinette Montague
The recent release of Antoinette Montague's debut CD Pretty Blues has helped introduce the wonderful bluesy jazz singing of Antoinette Montague to the music world.
Born and raised in Newark, Antoinette Montague may have just released her first CD but she has had many invaluable musical experiences. She worked in gospel and r&b ensembles after college, serves as the vice president of the International Women in Jazz, and considers Carrie Smith, Etta Jones, Della Griffin and Myrna Lake to be her mentors. Antoinette has worked extensively in the New York area during the past decade with such musicians as Red Holloway, Benny Powell, Bill Easley, Winard Harper, Wycliffe Gordon, Frank Wess, the Duke Ellington Orchestra and Mike Longo's New York State of the Arts Orchestra.
