Testimonials

"I was able to catch your show with a friend and wanted to let you know how impressed we were.  Absolutely beautiful.  Musicianship was outstanding, and your capturing of Billie Holiday’s musical genius was pitch perfect.   We hope to see you again and I hopefully we can see your other group here as well."
Jerry M. - January  2020 (With The Sofia/ Home of the Bst Theatre)


"Wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed the show at Soper Reese last night with you and your group ... Phenomenal performance in our little town of some of the most iconic jazz out there and you do so amazingly well with the Billie holiday song book. Your engaging stories about the woman, the era, and the music and your perfect arrangements and vocal stylings -and so true to the spirit ! Say thanks to the other virtuosos ! A most memorable music night in our theater . ...we will watch for more ... Stella and the Starlights too."

"Stella channeling Billie Holiday--don't miss an opportunity to catch her currently touring "Billie Holiday Project"!

"Stella Heath channeling Billie Holiday at the Sofia in a traveling tribute show she created, the "Billie Holiday Project"--if you get a chance to catch it, GO! As Betsy Collins, a Juilliard trained classical pianist, and her musically talented son Douglas Nassau both said, Stella "is the real deal"!
Elizabeth M. -Sacramento, January 2020

"Stella Heath, founder & singer displayed pure artistry and distilled human emotion as she interpreted the soulful music of Billie Holiday. Sharing the stage with Stella were outstanding and accomplished musicians who masterfully played an array of instruments including piano, saxophone, upright bass and drums.
Following in the footsteps of Billie Holiday, I would love to see them tour both the United States and Europe in the near future."
Amy Contardi, KRCB Public Media, Crossing Borders, April 2019

"Just got home from the concert tonight at the OCA. One of the best nights of our lives. Great performance by Ms. Heath and an amazing 4 piece band, especially pianist, Neil Angelo Fontano.
​Highly recommended!"

"Saw this jaw-dropping awesome performance last night with Stella Heath as Billie Holiday with the most accomplished local musicians, including a pianist who was easily the best jazz/swing player I’ve seen. Very intimate venue at Occidental Art Center. Both beautiful wife Debra and I agree it was thrilling to see and hear this special act. We enthusiastically recommend to catch this show at a next performance." -Occidental Audience member, Robert, Feb 2019

"It was a fantastic concert! The Divine Miss Stella did indeed capture the sound and soul of Lady Day, and the ensemble was superb. We did our best to accommodate everyone, and the audience was very appreciative. Be sure to catch this show wherever you can."
-Andrea Van Dyke with Occidental Center for the Arts Feb 2019
