MBADC: How did
you get started as a back vocalist?
Kudisan Kai: I
got started as a backing vocalist after winning an
audition for the Anita Baker Rapture tour in 1986. I had been
bartering my services as a singer for a songwriter’s demo. In return he
offered to record my demo. His girlfriend had the gig with Anita and they
were looking for another singer. He recommended me to her. She contacted me
to come and audition.
Darcie-Nicole Wicknick: I had been in choir my whole life and was
pursuing the whole solo artist thing. Most of my background work
happened when I was working as a demo vocalist for a producer in Boston.
And, then it branched out into singing behind colleagues that needed me in a
back vocal setting.
