Description
Nora Whittaker (vocals, keys) captures the humor and heartache in the authentic stories and experiences she tells through her jazz/soul influenced original songs, performed with whimsical commitment and passion. "Other People's Secrets" was expertly produced by Mike and Josh from the Philadelphia-based band Love Syndicate and recorded at Studio 4 in Conshohoken, PA. The back-up band features Josh on guitar, Woody Sutton on drums, Chuck Treese on bass and Sean Whittaker on backing vocals. "Head to 55" also features Harold Dunn on fiddle.
What one fan said about "Other People's Secrets"
"..our household hasn't been so excited since we got a microwave and cooked a hot dog in 30 seconds!"
(Lillian Klupka, 2003)
Nora says...
"My songs are based on secrets and stories - mostly other people's secrets and stories. I seem to be the sort of person that people bring their stories to: both a blessing and a burden. These are often stories that I can't or won't communicate directly to anyone else. That would be tacky and rude! Some of these stories and situations, however, become so compelling to me that I need to express them somehow. So they become songs with altered names and details so I don't betray anyone's trust. Then the challenge is capturing the overall intricacy of each situation."
Currently based out of Philadelphia, PA , Nora plays in smokey bars, intimate coffee shops, colleges and more. She loves musicians like Stevie Wonder (Songs in the Key of Life), Patty Griffin, Joni Mitchell (during the 70s), Ella Fitzgerald, The Band, Jeff Buckley, Radiohead and others. But her favorite music experience has always been live concerts.
