CiCi’s powerful and stunning singing
has earned her the title of “First Lady of Jazz” by the
Barbados Advocate, a leading newspaper on the island. The list of
celebrities who have attended CiCi’s captivating performances
includes luminaries such as the late jazz legend Sarah Vaughan and
prototypical rocker Mick Jagger.
This sultry and soulful singer has performed at the finest venues in
Barbados where she’d been enchanting audiences for over 20
years. She has recently won a Cornerstone Award at the
Barbados Music Awards, and had previously earned a Music Service Award from the Barbados Tourism Authority
in 2004 for her contribution to music on the island.
Prior to her recent move to Canada, she performed regularly at the prestigious Sandy Lane Resort with
her own jazz band, and she had joined the venerable VSOP Dixieland Jazz
Band for a weekly headliner at the Waterfront Café in what had
become for many years an island institution for locals and repeat tourists alike.
CiCi has also garnered international attention during performances
in St. Vincent, St. Lucia, Mustique, Great Britain, and the USA.
Serious jazz aficionados will recognize the names of jazz greats
CiCi has accompanied, including notables such as the late Ernie
Small, Ebe Gilkes, Mike Sealy, Vere Gibson, Nicholas Brancker, Cecil Bascombe and
Andre Woodvine.
