R&B and jazz vocalist Patti Austin made her debut at the Apollo Theater at the age of four and had a contact with RCA Records when she was only 5 years old. With a now over 60-year career, Austin remains in constant demand for live performances globally.
She had success as a teenager in the '60s as a R&B star before establishing herself as a mainstay among jazz and soul audiences through her ‘70s recordings. By the ‘80s, Austin became known to the wider international audience as a result of the Grammy-nominated “Baby Come to Me” and “How Do You Keep the Music Playing,” her early ‘80s classic duets with James Ingram, masterminded by musical godfather Quincy Jones.
