Monica Ramey & Friends

"Now that the trend of aging rockers cutting albums of show tunes and standards seems thankfully to have run its course, we're back to vocalists with a real feel for and understanding of the jazz tradition doing them justice. Nashville's Monica Ramey is a shining example. Her excellent release Make Someone Happy offers resourceful, soaring and engaging interpretations of material from The Great American Songbook." - Ron Wynn, Nashville Scene

Such acclaim is a common occurrence for Monica Ramey, a Midwest talent, joined by artists like Beegie Adair, Anthony Wilson, Clifton Davis, Jeff Steinberg, Annie Sellick, Roger Spencer, Rod McGaha, Jeff Coffin, and Lori Mechem, all of whom have expressed admiration for her work.

Hailing from Francesville, one of Indiana's quaintest towns, Monica grew up performing on stage alongside her mother in a high school show choir, singing and dancing. Her passion for music blossomed from a young age, culminating in a move to Nashville after earning her college degree to chase her dreams in music. There, she discovered the Nashville Jazz Workshop, where she learned from some of the top jazz talents in the area and created a second family.

Monica is widely recognized for her long-established collaboration with jazz pianist Beegie Adair. The duo has produced and appeared on numerous recordings and has graced sold-out jazz venues across the United States, particularly at Birdland Jazz Club in New York. She now manages their business, Adair Music Group LLC.

Outside of her performances, Monica treasures quality time with friends, family, and pets. She enjoys traveling, cooking, and gardening, and supports a variety of organizations focused on animal welfare.
