Rhea Makiaris is traveling sensation with a natural ear for music, a honey voice, and a yen for old school R&B.
Rhea transports her listeners back to a golden age of music, when all a performer needed to entertain was a guitar and an exceptional voice. Her dulcet sounds have been described as reminiscent of the greats: the clear, perfect pitch of Ella; the raw attitude of Janice; infectious energy of Tina and the soul of her own personal divine being: Aretha. Her vocal style incorporates jazz, soul, gospel and blues, finding inspiration from singers such as Bonnie Raitt, Susan Tedeschi, Etta James, and Sam Cooke.
Rhea has played everywhere from the sandy shores of San Diego to all over New York City. Her venues have been bars to backyards, rooftops to restaurants, beaches to barns and lots of in between places. She readily engages her talents with a large circle of musical guests and performs with bands as well as solo. Her talents are diverse and unique. Since Rhea is also a sign language interpreter, it is not unusual to see songs signed as well as sung. She also lent her musical prowess to the creation of the theme song for an up and coming comedy show.
Rhea has an EP of original material produced by award winning engineer Sven-Erik Seaholm from 2008. After taking her show all over this great nation on an inspiring road tour last year, she just released her second recording, "Number Two" in November of 2014.
