Debbie Duncan gets to the soul of the matter in every vocal performance. She is a jazz singer, to be sure, but there is no mistaking the deep well of inspiration from Gospel, folk, blues, R&B and classical. Her five CD releases, including I Thought About You (FS Music 2006), are the work of a complete vocalist – one who understands that bravado and vulnerability are equally potent, and often intertwined, forms of expression. Born in Memphis and raised in Detroit, Debbie has been one of the most revered figures in the vibrant Twin Cities music scene for over two decades. The Minneapolis Star Tribune put it this way: “Once you hear Debbie Duncan, you probably won't think of any other singer; she's that commanding.”
