Angela Scappatura has spent the past three years delighting audiences across Canada with her blues infused jazz. Through this time she has toured Asia, opened for Ronnie Hawkins at Toronto's iconic Massey Hall, won a Northern Ontario Music Award, performed at the Toronto Jazz Festival, The Canada Walk of Fame Gala as well as the Beaches, Distillery and Port Credit Jazz Festivals. Other venues include The Montreal Bistro, The Rex, and The Capitol Centre.
Since the February 2005 release of 'A Little Bit of Sugar' in Toronto, radio play has steadily grown with tracks airing on Jazz fm 91.1, national and local CBC broadcast radio as well as privately operated stations across Ontario. Angela has also appeared live on a number of radio and television shows including Canada AM, Telelatino, Fresh Air (CBC) and bluz fm on Jazz fm 91.1.
Her debut album 'A Little Bit of Sugar' is the culmination of the tenacity, talent and charm that Angela continues to exude and is merely a glimpse of what this "Diva-in-Waiting" is capable of.
With a release that has set the Canadian jazz and blues scene ablaze with its romantic, yet sultry elegance, Angela has firmly taken her place in the hearts of admirers everywhere and, like any gifted artist, has left them longing for more.
"Angela gets right to the crux of romantic longing. She puts heat and passion into the lyric and it simply pulses with life." John Gilbert ejazznews.com
