Beth started her professional singing career at the age of 17, when she left Minnesota to start performing at the Mt. Washington Hotel in N ew Hampshire. Consequently, she moved to nearby Boston, where she met her husband, Adi Yeshaya and attended Berklee College of Music.
After Berklee, they moved to Adi's home country of Israel. During the year and a half there, she performed in some of Tel Aviv's premier jazz clubs and worked as a session singer in many recordings. After moving back to Boston to finish Berklee, they finally settled in Minneapolis, where she worked as a session vocalist singing music for radio and television commercials. She also sang back up vocals on various recordings and was featured on two Compass Records releases "Christmas Concert" and "Nightsongs" (available at Target stores). Among her public appearances, she can be spotted in various jazz venues in the Twin Cities, including Dakota, Yvette and the Luxxeford. Some of her performances include singing back up vocals for disco diva Gloria Gaynor and being featured together with vocalists Debbie Duncan and Dennis Spears fronting the Adi Yeshaya Big Band. She and her band also toured the San Juan Islands. Her long-awaited CD "Far Cry" brings together some of the top names in the local scene as well as some nationally known names as Jesse Levy (cello), Michael Baker and some members of Prince's horn section, as well as an appearance by the nationally acclaimed accapella group Vox One. The CD was recorded live at Studio M (Minnesota Public Radio) with an audience, to capture the best of both worlds of a studio environment and a live setting. The recording was then enhanced by Producer/husband Adi Yeshaya, where additional musicians were added. Beth's CD "Far Cry" is available through CDbaby and Amazon.com |
