Denice Brooks built her solo career while she performed with Anita Baker, Roy Ayers, Luther Vandross, Tina Turner and Natalie Cole. She moved Prince with her version of “Purple Rain” and made huge crowds dance all over Europe. Now, she is back.

Rising Star

While living in Germany in the 90’s – Jennifer Rush (“Power of Love“) and Dr. Alban (“Sing Hallelujah“) hired Denice for their European tours, where she was a huge success.

Sir Paul McCartney also hired her to co-star in a musical which he wrote. It was based on his duet with Stevie Wonder in their Grammy winning song “Ebony and Ivory”. Every show was sold out and the audience responded with standing ovations for her performances every night.
