During her 35+ years in the business, Tameka has had many unique experiences and created many fond memories which have included various Royal performances (most memorable being…singing for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at her Silver Jubilee), working with and/or sharing the stage with many world renowned artists, travelling the globe as a guest entertainer on some of the biggest & most prestigious cruise lines, performing to sell-out crowds at various elite venues & festivals worldwide and also achieving chart success as a sought after session vocalist in the House/Soul Music scene.

With her wealth of experience in performing and her deep admiration of Diana Ross, Tameka took her career in yet another direction. Over the last several years, Tameka has paid tribute to the queen of Motown, winning her multiple awards.
