Artist Biography

Ella Fitzgerald, also known as the "First Lady of Song" and the "Queen of Jazz," was an iconic American jazz singer born on April 25, 1917, in Newport News, Virginia. Raised in poverty, she overcame numerous obstacles to become one of the most celebrated and influential jazz vocalists of all time. Fitzgerald's career took off in the 1930s when she won an amateur singing contest at the Apollo Theater in Harlem. She soon caught the attention of bandleader Chick Webb, with whom she recorded her first hit, "A-Tisket, A-Tasket," in 1938. Fitzgerald's incredible vocal range, impeccable phrasing, and scat singing abilities quickly made her a household name. Throughout her six-decade-long career, Fitzgerald recorded over 200 albums, won 13 Grammy Awards, and collaborated with numerous jazz legends, including Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie. Her timeless renditions of jazz standards like "Summertime" and "Mack the Knife" continue to enchant audiences worldwide. Ella Fitzgerald's extraordinary talent, pure tone, and unparalleled vocal improvisation skills solidified her as one of the greatest singers in the history of jazz
