Stacy has a powerful five octave range with a great ear for arrangements and harmonies. She  began cultivating her talent at the age of five by writing her first song and singing jazz standards on Army bases in Germany.  Presently, you can hear her powerful vocals on several other artist's CD's presently in stores and she is presently working on her own highly anticipated
 CD to be released this summer.   Although her musical career has been diverse, the blues is her heart.

Her infatuation with the blues began when she joined Mike O'Meara's (radio personality from the Don & Mike show) Crap Blues Band in 2002. While with Crap she performed at the State Theatre, Sully's, The Shark Club to name a few venues. Stacy joined the group Free Rein and began performing at Bangkok Blues, The National Grill and other venues in the DC area. Contributed lead and background vocals on Free Rein's Blues/Jazz infused Cold Wind CD. This CD was nominated for a WAMMIE in the Best Blues Recording by the Washington Area Music Association (WAMA).
She sometimes stuns her audience by singing blues and jazz in German.

She sang lead, background vocals and contributed vocal arrangements on the highly anticipated Ras Iton's Reggae CD  which is also projected to be released in the summer of 2008. The single Dirty Rumors is currently blazing the music charts in Jamaica.

Her most recent solo project is The Stacy Brooks Band, which she formed in February 2007.   That same year in November, they placed 2nd in The DC Blues Society's  Battle of the Bands.  Closing out a great year of touring the east coast, she was also nominated for a "WAMMIE" in the The New Artist of the Year category by The Washington Area Music Association in 2007.    This year has also been a busy year for the band as they toured again this summer and placed 2nd in The Sedalia Center/James River Blues Society's Blues Competition in the mountains of Big Island, Va.
  
Her eclectic upbringing and background makes her style makes you think of Delta Style Aretha Franklin + Koko Taylor + Teena Marie + Celia Cruz + Shirley Horn + Etta James + Tanya Stephens + Billie Holliday + Diana Krall + Miriam Makeba + Big Mama Thornton + Angelique Kidgo
=  Uniquely Stacy Brooks.

Watch out, because she is just getting started…The CD is in the making and should be out by the end of the summer.
