Crowned “Little Ella” by the late legendary trombonist Curtis Fuller, Award winning Vocal Musician MAVIS SWAN POOLE has generated quite a buzz on the international music scene. She is graced with an unrivaled brilliance of shattering genre barriers with her rich and smoky sound. Poole is known for being one of the first jazz/soul Vocalists to employ her ability to sing two or more notes simultaneously, or “Multiphonics”. A rare gift since childhood, which has remained with her even as a vocal surgery and sulcus survivor.

The late Al Jarreau summed it up best after her band (co-led with Jeremy BEAN Clemons), “Soul Understated” played at the Pittsburgh Jazz Festival in June 2015. “Listen, I was around with Coltrane and Miles. They wouldn’t have wanted to get on the stage after what y’all just did.” In truth, Queen Mavis can croon as sweetly as a bird, or wail and scat out fiery tones and improvised lines with the most confident of instrumentalist.

SWAN has performed and shared the stage with the greats in most genres. To name a few, Lauryn Hill, 9th Wonder, PRINCE and NPG, Gladys Knight, Mavis Staples, Sheryl Crow, Shirley Caesar, Dr. Billy Taylor, and The Wailers. While she has performed with other artists, she has mostly performed under her own name, and with her original music, proving a true Artist in her own right.

SWAN is a 2007 Magna Cum Laude graduate of North Carolina Central University in Durham, NC. There, she was Classically trained, earning a BA in Music Education, as well as a BM in Music, with a concentration in Jazz Vocal Studies. In 2011, she received her MA in Music, with a concentration in Jazz Vocal Performance at Queens College in NYC. She also attended college for Psychology.

As an Educator, SWAN was a Vocal Jazz Adjunct Professor at North Carolina Central University and is currently a 6-12 grade Music Teacher at a prestigious charter school. Of course, she is still, and will always perform her own music around the world. She is a Vocal Coach that boasts teaching experience that spans over 20 years.

She is now making her most magical foray into the national scene of urban adult music with the soulfully crafted EP entitled, ‘Adult Time: Vol 1’, which features the single and sensual masterpiece, “The Assignment”. Inspired by her personal desires, the manifestations of the world around her, and her private ‘adult time’, “The Assignment” is sure to satisfy the cravings that accompany the way adults sometimes play. “The Assignment” was skillfully sculpted by Mavis and producer Eddie Gypsy Stokes.

Queen SWAN is definitely carving her space in the Musicverse, and establishing a solid legacy that will ensure she and her music is remembered for years and years to come. Her new single entitled “Every Man Ain’t The Same” (ISRC#: QZ-VQK-22-91272) is currently making the rounds on radio looking for adds. Radio Airplay Network affiliate station WHTL Urban Radio in Cleveland Ohio has spotlighted the track and is getting good initial listener response.
