- **Event Description**: The Dynamic Miss Faye Carol is known as an icon in the Bay Area and beyond, highly regarded for her powerful voice, astonishing versatility, and gift of connecting with her audience. Equally at home in jazz, blues, R&B, gospel, funk, latin, and hip-hop, she has developed her own authentic sound and unique delivery, delighting audiences young and old across the globe.

After beginning her career with gospel music, Faye Carol made her name singing with Oakland blues and funk legend Johnny Talbot & De Thangs in the 1960s. She soon formed her own trio and gained fame in San Francisco's jazz, blues, and cabaret clubs of the 1970s and 80s. Over a 60-year career in music, this living legend has developed her own unique acoustic sound and style in Black Music - drawing from funk, blues, gospel, and straight ahead swingin' - and cultivated an audience that remains as diverse as her uplifting music.

She has maintained a high level of musicianship in her groups, mentoring some of the Bay Area's brightest young talent including Benny Green, Marcus Shelby, and her daughter Kito Kamili. Her vocal proteges include international superstars Kehlani and Ledisi. Miss Faye has shared the stage with Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, Joe Tex, Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, Ray Charles, Gene Ammons, Pharaoh Sanders, Joan Baez, Billy Higgins, Albert King, Bobby Hutcherson, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Buster Williams, Azar Lawrence, Steve Turre, Dennis Chambers, Bernard Purdie, Lenny White, Robert Randolph, Mistah F.A.B., Henry Butler, Gary Bartz, Cedar Walton, Ledisi, Billy Hart, Roy McCurdy, Mike Clark, Casey Benjamin, Philly Joe Jones, Lady Tramaine Hawkins, Houston Person, Vi Redd, Jeff ‘Tain’ Watts, Dayna Stephens, Dorothy Donegan, Pete Escovedo, David Murray, Chester Thompson, Charles Brown, and Eddie 'Cleanhead' Vinson, among others.

Miss Faye is also a dedicated educator and community activist and founder of School of The Getdown. School of The Getdown has presented arts education and performance programs throughout the Bay Area for over 25 years, with the mission of celebrating Black arts and sharing these cultural traditions with diverse Bay Area communities, with particular attention towards youth and the Black community. School of The Getdown programs include an annual Youth Arts Camp, after school arts programs for youth, the annual Black Women’s Roots Festival, Black History Month programs in underserved schools, the annual Black Music Month Festival, masterclasses with visiting artists, and commissioned artistic works celebrating Black culture.

Faye Carol has been honored with the proclamation of a city-wide “Faye Carol Day” in the City of Berkeley and City of Oakland and inducted into the Oakland Walk of Fame, the Meridian Mississippi Walk of Fame, and the Pittsburg Entertainment & Arts Hall of Fame, and has received countless awards, including the Bay Area Jazz Journalists Association Jazz Hero Award, Jefferson Award for Public Service, four Cabaret Gold Awards, Top Star Awards Entertainer of the Year, the Hewlett 50 Arts Commission, and the Walter & Elise Haas Fund Creative Power Award.
