Tia Carroll is in demand. She’s commanding, compelling, soulful and authentic, singing the blues in a bold, straightforward manner. Born and raised in Richmond, California where she still lives, Tia has shared the stage with Ray Charles, Gladys Knight, Patti LaBelle and Eddie Money. She has toured Europe singing with Bay Area blues singer Jimmy McCracklin and performed in the Baltics, Italy, France and Brazil as a headliner. She performs regularly around the Bay Area and on the West Coast.
The West Coast Blues Hall of Fame named her female blues vocalist of the year in 2007, and the Jus’ Blues Music Foundation in Memphis honored her as traditional blues woman of the year in 2008. Tia’s earned a reputation for her sizzling stage show, and always generates a buzz whenever she brings her band to town.
