Eboni Fondren is more than a smooth and sultry songstress. Singing is her pure joy; her outlet and escape from the pressures of the world. It is a way she can proclaim her love for someone without them knowing it. Through music, she tells off that ex-boyfriend, or announces a yearning for companionship without shame or fear. She touches hearts, and brings joy to all who listen. Originally hailing from Chicago, Fondren now claims Kansas City as her home. The impressionable years of her life were spent singing in her father’s basement recording studio, variety shows at the YMCA, and of course performing for family and friends. As she got older she honed her skills as a dancer and actor participating in school theatre productions, local television commercials and area talent shows. In high-school she became heavily involved in musical theater, student activities and sports which ultimately led to a very successful college career. It is also here where her love affair with jazz music began.
