PTAH BROWN
"Ptah's voice defines the heartache of Blues, and
the hope of Gospel. Ptah's strength and range, is revolutionizing the
genres; by breathing life into the music with her dazzling repertoire. The
charismatic Ptah has enough energy to light up a small town…"
–The Cape Cod
Times
Ptah Brown is a multi-talented
performer—vocalist, songwriter, actress, and teacher. Her latest CD,
"Blues- Live In Italy"
demonstrates a style
cutting across several musical genres—blues, jazz, pop, Gospel...
Singing with power and passion, she dazzles her audiences. Ptah's
natural ability to communicate with her fans is evident, in the many
accolades she receives wherever she performs.
Ptah is no newcomer to the music
industry. At the early age of four, she began singing in public, in church
choirs and religious organizations and still sings in various churches
today. For Ptah, Gospel music was a segue into Jazz, Blues, Soul,
Latin, Pop, Reggae, Calypso and Zydeco music.
