Ramona Collins is a premier entertainer. This Toledo-based vocalist has a commanding stage presence and a soulful voice. The penetrating appeal of Ramona's performance derives in large measure of course, from her rich, nimble and evocative voice. Her interpretations of familiar tunes convey wisdom, humor and an almost ethereal goodwill that combines to create the impression of, not just a great singer, but a remarkable person sharing music and something more. She is an award-winning singer and a past president of the former Toledo Jazz Society. She has opened for Gladys Knight, Patti Labelle, and Jennifer Holiday and worked with a wide variety of musicians and singers.
Sultry, seasoned, witty and cool are words that come to mind when experiencing this engaging performer whose command of the stage and vast repertoire have helped her establish a solid rapport with club, concert and festival audiences wherever she goes. She mentors and encourages other singers and is currently working on music for an original project.
