"If it''s good it doesn''t need a label.” - Toni Gates
This sums up the attitude and music of Kansas City native, Toni Gates. Toni began her singing career in the comforts of her own home. Her mom says she started singing along with popular TV jingles as a toddler. No one expected that small voice to become what it is today.
Early on her goal was to be a versatile singer. Toni has far surpassed that goal and over the years has developed an all-encompassing voice that contains great power, range, agility and gracefulness.
Toni''s professional experiences include being a church soloist, recording radio commercials, touring as lead vocalist with a big band, singing in cabaret shows, fronting jazz combos and directing and uniting with others in traditional choral and vocal jazz ensembles. She has educated theory and vocal music students at Paseo Academy for the Performing Arts, the 18th & Vine History and Performing Arts Summer Academy, The University of Kansas, the Music Arts Institute and Penn Valley Community College.
Ms. Gates added songwriting to her repertoire and produced her first CD of 9 originals, “Outside the Lines,” in 2003. Since 2004, Toni has showcased area talent in her “One by One” annual concert series. She has had the great fortune to hone her musical skills and talents in Kansas City and during visits to Florida, Chicago, the Caribbean and London. Meeting individuals such as Nancy Wilson, Clark Terry, Alaadeen, Tom Ransom, Chris Burnett, Teri Wilder and Clarence Smith have encouraged her to continue listening and growing to become a well-rounded musician. Toni will release her second CD of 10 fresh takes on classic standards, “I’m Old Fashioned” in February 2008.
