Anaïs St. John

Anaïs St. John was raised in a musical household and trained as an opera singer, singing mezzo-soprano with the New Orleans Opera. She branched out as a solo artist, blending jazz, blues, and R & B, inspired by iconic singers like Eartha Kitt and Lola Falana, and hometown heroes such as Irma Thomas and Germaine Bazzle. She can be found performing her classy, impeccable repertoire in clubs and at festivals across the city and in Europe. St. John has developed several tribute shows, honoring Donna Summer, Tina Turner, and Lulu White (the Queen of Storyville), and often incorporates that material into her sets.
