Angela Parrish studied music education in university, suppressing her desire to perform as a soloist and devoting a great deal of time to accompanying others on the piano. Not any more. Today, she is a jazz singer and composer living - and working - in Los Angeles, which is no small feat.

Angela's voice is recognized by millions – at a minimum you've heard her singing the opening number in the film "La La Land". I had a chance to visit with her about her journey from Kansas to landing that gig.
