Oleta Adams Story Podcast Funk Funky Pearls Radio

mercredi 24 juillet 2024 • Durée 03:43

Oleta Angela Adams, née le 4 mai 1953, est une chanteuse, pianiste et compositrice américaine.

Après un succès limité au début des années 1980, elle se fait connaître grâce à ses contributions à l'album acclamé de Tears for Fears, The Seeds of Love (1989).

Ses albums Circle of One (1991) et Evolution (1993) atteignent le top 10 au Royaume-Uni ; le premier incluant une reprise nominée aux Grammy Awards de "Get Here" de Brenda Russell. Adams a été nominée pour quatre Grammy Awards et deux Soul Train Music Awards.

Fille d'un prédicateur, Adams grandit en écoutant de la musique gospel.

Sa famille déménage à Yakima, Washington, où elle débute sa carrière musicale dans l'église.

Dans les années 1970, elle s'installe à Los Angeles et enregistre une bande démo.

N'ayant pas trouvé de succès dans l'industrie musicale disco-dominée, elle déménage à Kansas City sur les conseils de son coach vocal Lee Farrell.

Elle y participe à divers concerts locaux et sort deux albums auto-financés au début des années 1980.

En juin 1985, alors qu'elle se produit au Peppercorn Duck Club de l'hôtel Hyatt à Kansas City, elle est remarquée par Ian Stanley de Tears for Fears. Ils lui proposent de collaborer sur leur album The Seeds of Love.

En 1989, l'album sort avec le single "Woman in Chains", un duo avec Roland Orzabal et Phil Collins à la batterie. En 1990, Adams part en tournée mondiale avec Tears for Fears.
