BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Born in Harlem, New York, Patti Austin got an early start in music, signing her first contract with RCA Records when she was just five years old. Between 1969 and 1991, she landed an impressive 20 tracks on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, including the 1981 funk masterpiece "Do You Love Me," which reached No. 1 on the US Dance chart. Throughout the '80s, Austin lent her voice to a variety of projects, eventually becoming known as "Queen of The Jingles" for her appearance in ads by companies ranging from Burger King and Meow Mix to the US Army. More recently, Austin has delved into jazz and big band with fabulous results — 2008's Avant Gershwin earned her a Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Album.
