Soul on Soul with Phinesse featuring Tygressa

Your Host Phinesse Demps chops it up with this talented artist Tygressa.

Here is just a little something about Tygressa:

Tygressa Jones, most affectionately known as ‘Ty’ by many, was only 11 years old when her musical curiosity was drawn to Natalie Cole’s sultry yet powerful vocal tones and style.  She recalls at such a tender age singing “I’m Catching Hell (living here alone)” and feeling every bit of the pain and regret the lyrics aligned with such incredibly orchestrated music would suggest.  It was where and when she began to experience the emotional effects of meaningful lyrics.  Having claimed the albums of her older brother, Ric, who was a local Deejay – The Black Dragon – at the time, Ty learned and mimicked every song on those albums – Side A and Side B – lyric for lyric, note for note.  Being a member of her elementary school chorus was also very instrumental in the development of her voice and vocal range.  As a result of a chorus, the Carpenters is her all-time favorite singing group!
