"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

This kind of reaction is a reoccurring theme in the case of Midwest native Monica Ramey and artists like Beegie Adair, Mandy Barnett, Jeff Coffin, Jeff Steinberg, Annie Sellick, Roger Spencer, Rod McGaha, Anthony Wilson, Michael Feinstein and Lori Mechem are just a few who are singing her praise.

Monica is a native of Francesville, one of Indiana’s smallest towns. As a child, Monica would sing and dance on stage with her mother’s high school show choir. She’s studied music since she was a child and after college graduation, she moved to Nashville to pursue her singing career, where she discovered the Nashville Jazz Workshop, studying under some of Nashville finest jazz musicians as well as create a family away from home.

Monica is best known for her longstanding musical relationship with jazz pianist Beegie Adair. Together, they appeared on and produced multiple recordings together and played sold out jazz clubs across the US, most often Birdland Jazz Club in New York. When not performing, Monica operates Adair Music Group, LLC and enjoys spending time with her loved ones and animals, traveling, cooking and gardening. Monica supports various animal, music and human rights organizations.
