TABITHA FAIR
A REMARKABLE VOICE, A REMARKABLE WOMAN
One World Blue Singer/Songwriter Review by Talent Director Russell Johnson, Renowned and Acclaimed JRJ Productions Founder
“A simply complicated question for music lovers – What do Sting, James Taylor, Lady GaGa, Elton John, Paul Simon, Bruce Springsteen, Carol King, Rascal Flatts, Melissa Etheridge, Annie Lenox & Dave Stewart (The Eurythmics), Steve Cropper, and countless others have in common? In two remarkable words – TABITHA FAIR."
"Her angelic voice has been the go-to harmonies for more artists than there is room to mention, and what a difference she makes. From the Kennedy Center Honors to the CMA Awards to The Rainforest Benefit to Sting's 60th Birthday Celebration to The Grand Ole Opry, and The Ryman, Tabitha has graced more stages than even she can remember. And for a good reason, her voice and stage presence is phenomenal."
"Tabitha Fair is one of those special talents that can take your breath away and move your soul to the edge. While being an integral force of the award-winning contemporary Christian band "Avalon," Tabitha was also forging ahead with her solo career."
"She is one of those rare artists that defy genre description. While one immediately hears the R&B inflections of her stylings, Jazz, Gospel, Country, and Rock & Roll spring to the mind and the groove. Tabitha was just getting started."
"Following a move from Nashville to New York City, Tabitha discovered a demand for her incredible vocals to accompany many established artists, a few mentioned above, Tabitha could have become a superstar in her own right, but she followed her heart and realized she wanted to share her voice with others, completing the circle if you will."
Tabitha's ego takes a backseat to her passion – which is summed up by her -
“ My simple goal is to move people, touch their hearts, and bring happiness through communication. ”
"The move to NYC could have been motivated by a project Tabitha completed with the legendary Carol King. That project turned out to be "If We Get Through This," the amazing theme song to the movie "The Sum of All Fears," in which Tabitha sings lead. This and much more of Tabitha's art is available online."
"When asked how many albums Tabitha has appeared, there was a long pause followed by "A Lot!" – more than she can count. That is called "In Demand."
"It is probably no secret by now that I've known Tabitha Fair for many years. Yet that does not affect my opinion of her talent. It is quite simply supreme. You have seen her before, whether you realize it or not. Do yourself a favor and look her up online, her initial mass-market solo release will be "dropping" soon….. And you can say, "I know who she is!" and join the echelon of the music business that already knows an incredible talent that is Tabitha Fair."
