“Re: Writeup on George Gee's Swing Band: “... a singer named ANGEL
ROSE who does ballads with a silken voice and swings the blues.””

http://www.couturefashionweek.com/performers.htm#igor Angel Rose was honored to be the featured vocalist for Stevie Wonder and Dizzy Gillespie's collaboration, the Grammy nominated recording, Closer to the Source. Quincy Jones, George Duke, and Glenn Ballard are among the notable producers who have selected her to record with a diverse roster of artists, truly the elite of the industry, including Michael Jackson, Herbie Hancock, Chaka Kahn, Vanessa Williams, and Celine Dion.
Backing Michael Powers on vocals is the sweet, melodic Angel Rose.
The gifted 2x Grammy nominee Angel Rose is featured as lead
vocalist on It’s About That Time, to which she also contributed lyrics.
Rose, also a Jazz and Opera singer, proves up to the task, with all of
her octaves a perfect match for Michael’s outrageous guitar and Neil
Burton’s dynamic drums rollin’ & a’tumblin’. Rose has worked with
Quincy Jones, Dizzy Gillespie, Michael Jackson, Chaka Khan & Bruce
Springsteen. She is also Michael's vocal coach on this CD. Michael
sings Lookin’ for the Truth, a rock-folk song about youth, with Angel
Rose in vocal unison, a technique inspired by the Rolling Stones’
anthemic “Gimmie Shelter”. Got’s to Go (Rose’ lyrics) recants the irony
of being in love as a traveling performer.
