Soul Defined... How an artist starts a journey can say a lot about their destination; belting out melodies from the womb is a divine beginning. Having received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Vocal Music Performance at LeMoyne Owen College, along with studying under some of opera's greatest powerhouses such as Grace Bumbry, Vera Little, even abroad in Pisa, Italy under world renowned Pilralba Sorga, the classically trained voice known as D'Monet cannot be defined as a Jazz, Rhythm and Blues or a Pop singer…but she has redefined the meaning of the traditional soul artist in what she calls "Alkaline Music" (music that heals).   D’Monet's recordings can only be matched by her live performances in various venues around Memphis,TN. She has been featured on numerous stages and sets and her sound has allowed her to branch out across several genres. She was honored to perform as the special guest for Black Enterprise’s Women of Power Summit in 2012. Having shared the stage with Soul Crooner Eric Roberson, and also having a brief stint as a background singer for Blackstreet’s Dave Hollister, D’Monet has become a musical mainstay, particularly in the city of Memphis. In 2013, D’Monet uprooted herself from her hometown and moved to Des Moines, IA, where she unsuspectedly became the front woman and keyboard player for two funk/soul bands R.S.V.P. and The Tighten Up band, and also made two appearances on KCWI’s “Great Day” Morning Show performing her original music. After returning to Memphis a few years later, she began releasing more original music. On September 6, 2019, D’Monet released her Chrysalis EP, which signifies the evolution of her life and her music. Stay tuned for what's next. Her quest to continue along her musical journey is just beginning…
