Tia Fuller: Angelic Warrior


The music of Tia Fuller is reflective of her creative spirit.  Her versatility in Gospel, R&B, and Jazz is driven by a balanced energy; the same energy Tia had touring and playing in Beyonce Knowles band for five years, as well as writing her own music as a bandleader.

Mark your calendars for September 25th; the date for Angelic Warrior - Tia Fuller's 3rd release under Mack Avenue Records.

Angelic Warrior underscores Tia's evolution as a Composer and Producer.  This release demonstrates the balance between the angels' gentleness, and the warriors' strength within; and is interpreted in each track.

Tia and her band made two appearances in the past four years of the "It's Commonly Jazz" series.  The Jazz Half caught up with Tia during both visits.  Click here to listen to the second interview, where she talks about Artistic Energy, inspired creativity, and the importance of group cohesiveness.  And don't forget to pick up your copy of Angelic Warrior on September 25th.

We're talkin' Cincinnati Jazz, on LinkedIn

The Cincinnati Jazz community is a unique, exclusive group of individuals with an
unwavering passion for the music, and the musicians. When these enthusiasts gather for a

growing); consisting of Jazz Enthusiasts, as well as Musicians. Members share different

the music, and a lot more.
