Oleta Adams
Oleta Adams (born May 4, 1953, Seattle, Washington) is an American
soul, jazz, and gospel singer and pianist.
Adams was born the daughter of a preacher and was raised with gospel
music. In her youth her family moved to Yakima, Washington, which is
sometimes shown as her place of birth.
Adams started her career in 1980 with two self-financed albums which
had limited success. In 1985, she was discovered by Roland Orzabal and
Curt Smith, founders of the famous English pop band Tears for Fears
whilst performing in a Kansas City, Missouri bar. They invited her to
join their band as a singer to their next album The Seeds of Love.
In 1989, the LP was released and the single “Woman In Chains” - sung as
a duet by Adams and Orzabal and with Phil Collins on drums - became her
real first hit. Oleta started her solo career in 1990 assisted by
Orzabal who did the production. Her debut album Circle of One received
much critical acclaim and she scored her biggest hit to date in 1991
with her cover of Brenda Russell’s “Get Here”. 1991 also saw Oleta
contribute to the Elton John/Bernie Taupin tribute album, Two Rooms, on
which appeared her version of John’s 1974 hit “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down
On Me”.
Her next album Evolution was also a commercial success. Her 1995
release, Moving On, saw Oleta move more in the direction of R&B. Two
years later she released the Christian themed Come Walk With Me.
Adams’ smooth sumptuous contralto voice has become the vanguard in an
R&B jazz segment that was largely vacant during Anita Baker’s
hiatus.
In 2001, Adams released her sixth album, All The Love, a return to an
R&B/Adult contemporary sound. The album was re-released in 2004 in
Germany with a different title I Can’t Live a Day without You.
