About the Artist
A new CD, "Ellen O'Brien", has been released by Parr Audio on Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. Featuring the accomplished singer Ellen O'Brien, this eclectic record includes pop, smooth jazz, blues, and soul.Parr Audio is owned and operated by Jim Parr a talented and successful music producer, songwriter, and musician. He does much work for Carly Simon and the Taylor family. Also, he is involved in movie and television soundtracks. His acceptance of Ellen as a client was due to her tremendous talent. The CD includes many significant musicians including Rick Marotta, Jeremy Berlin, William Galison, etc.
An accomplished singer and songwriter, Ellen's career is quite extensive. She grew up in Revere, Massachusetts, where she started performing at eight years of age and was known citywide as the "singer". Her legend grew through high school, as she was the lead singer in school plays, and performed locally. She graduated from the prestigious Berklee School of Music in Boston, where she performed as an All-Star alumna last December to 1500 people and a standing ovation. After graduation she did numerous gigs in the Boston area along with vocal ads for well known Boston businesses. Ellen fronted a band which toured the US and Canada. She sang at the US Embassy in Cairo, Egypt to promote business interests between the US and Egypt.
Ellen moved to New York City where she won The Apollo Theater competition three times in a row, sang solo at the Lincoln Center, was the headline solo vocalist at numerous clubs, and was featured on the Tom Bergeron Show with Mark Wahlberg and others. Also, she performed at R&B Night at Tramps with Mary J Blidge and CeeCee Penderston. She is a sought after "event" performer in the city. A few months ago she filled in for Carly Simon at a major event and performed with Tony Bennett and Whoopie Goldberg.
Talented and noted movie producer, writer, and musician David Heilbroner writes:
"When people hear Ellen live today, they all want to know, ‘How come she isn't famous yet? And ‘Where can I get a CD ?' Small wonder. Ellen has the stage presence of a bad-ass Boston white girl cycled through a heavy dose of Chaka Kahn. She steps up to the mic, smiles that thousand-kilowatt smile and right away she owns the room. Then out comes that big, big, BIG voice. There's R&B in her. Gospel. FM pop and straight-down-the-line jazz. But she's more than a pro with amazing chops. You listen to Ellen for two minutes and you know she's not just about riffs and blowing you away with technique. Ellen can do that, all right. Only, way more important she's got soul—and that's the starlight that shines when Ellen sings".

Ellen's collaboration with this talented group of musicians and songwriters is special. I especially enjoyed the songs by Ellen, Noel Cohen & Jenny Bruce. Ellen's a mesmerizing live performer and she somehow transferred her passion and powerful persona to this great cd. Buy it and enjoy it!
