Melba Moore, one of my all time favorite artists. RW) I know that you started your professional career as a back-up singer with many performers and singers, including Ms. Is that something you embrace or see as a draw-back?ĪW) The internet is the way to go, but the drawback is that there is still nothing like live performance, making that human connection is still what makes for a memorable musical performance, but, as mentioned, we have to remain smart and safe so that we can continue to perform, and so we’ll work the internet and strive to make as personable as if you were at a concert. RW) Speaking of the internet, we are now in the digital age where streaming events, although were becoming more mainstream, have really been forced on us now. I had a virtual birthday party that someone threw for me that was surreal, but we embraced it. It is the normal for now until we can return to live performances with any consistency. So, yes, the internet is the go to source for these types of events. RW) Have you turned to the internet and hosted your on-line watch-parties, like I have seen so many singers do in 2020? Be it music, or dance, or theatrical, we just have to figure a way to make it happen. We just have to figure out how to keep that music going so that we can have that impact. I think we as artists will be a source of providing that healing. So I think music is going to be that medicine (beyond any vaccine). But, the one thing about music is, music is a bonding agent, music is a healer, and the world needs some medicine.

How have you adjusted as a performer to maintain your career and livelihood?ĪW) Yes, as an artist, everything was shut down very abruptly, and many of my colleagues have been figuring out what we can do to continue to have a livelihood, and to maintain our careers. I would imagine the same is true for you. RW) I was just speaking with the late David Bowie's piano man for thirty years, Mike Garson, and he and many of Bowie's band mates were in the middle of a world tour when the COVID-19 virus became a pandemic, essentially shutting down all live stage performances for the year.
