Naomi Shelton
Friday, May 22, 2009

Naomi Shelton started singing in her church in Midway, Alabama, when she was six years old. She moved to New York in the 60s and started living a double life singing at clubs at night and having odd jobs during the day. Now over sixty, she is releasing her first full-length album. Naomi Shelton and the Gospel Queens join us with a live performance.

I was fortunate to happen upon Naomi and the ladies perform at South Paw last Winter. I am SO THRILLED that they're incredible energy and voices are captured on this release. I've been waiting - it's my lucky vacation weekend! Ladies, you make everything OOOOOKKKK!
Folks who enjoy the tremendous Naomi Shelton and the Gospel Queens can catch them every Friday at 8:30 at Fat Cat (75 Christopher St. in the West Village). Hooray!
