Search - Elisabeth Withers :: No Regrets

Singer, songwriter and Tony-nominated actress ELISABETH WITHERS is one of a kind. More than your traditional Broadway star or R&B singer, Withers' artistic ambitions run broader and deeper than any single label or box allows. As exemplified by her electrifying rendition of Shug Avery in the original BROADWAY CAST OF OPRAH WINFREY PRESENTS: THE COLOR PURPLE, Withers is constantly striving for greater challenges in her art. Elisabeth also cut her teeth as a background singer for the likes of MARY J. BLIGE, ERYKAH BADU, R. KELLY, and CELINE DION. Her talent and tenacity earned her (under her Ellé Patrice alter ego) a Billboard Top 5 club hit with the likes "RISING" and "EMOTIONS" with hit-maker Tony Moran (Janet, Beyonce, Cher). Elisabeth's 2007 Blue Note debut IT CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE earned her critical raves along with some key synch licensing opportunities with CORONA and the GRAND THEFT AUTO video game. Withers is now poised to re-introduce her artistry after a three-year hiatus. With more intimate, world-wizened songs and dynamic performances intended to lighten listeners' hearts. NO REGRETS includes production FROM GRAMMY AWARD WINNING PRODUCER BARRY EASTMOND (ANITA BAKER, BRITNEY SPEARS, ARETHA FRANKLIN)and GRAMMY AWARD WINNER GORDON CHAMBERS (ISLEY BROTHERS, YOLANDA ADAMS USHER) who co-wrote and produced the 1st single "NO REGRETS." Additional production comes from GRAMMY AWARD WINNING PRODUCER TOBY GAD ("BIG GIRLS DON'T CRY" / FERGIE and "IF I WERE A BOY" / BEYONCE)Toby co-wrote and produced "WHY" and "DREAM."
