ADULT CONTEMPORARY JAZZ, STRAIGHT AHEAD JAZZ

"Upchurch & Maddox Are Now Married & On Fire!"

Legendary Guitarist, Phil Upchurch & Sensational Vocalist, Sonya Maddox-Upchurch


For the first time in legendary guitarist Phil Upchurch's career, Sonya Maddox is now recognized as his first writing partner. The timbre of her voice and style of language rings perfectly with my intricate combination of chords. Sonya completes me, "says Upchurch."

Herb Alpert was left mesmerized by Maddox and immediately offered Sonya his stage at Vibrato. Stevie Wonder says her passion and style is as dramatic as Nancy Wilson's.

Jazz enthusiast love Phil Upchurch for his unique compositions. In developing his own sound, Phil demonstrates no allegiance to any of his contemporaries. A prolific guitarist with over recordings and a prominent legend in music circles for over years, Phil Upchurch is respected as one of the best in his field. He goes from classical to jazz to contemporary funk as easy as walking from room to room in your home. He is comfortable playing the blues, soul, R&B and jazz

With over commercials to her credit, corporate America loves the essence she brings to their projects. Her most recent commercials include Listerine, Home Depot, and South Beach Diet. In addition to her acting, Sonya's musical career is on the fast track, performing both on screen and to live audiences.

Sonya's first starring screen role was in the award-winning Hanelle Culpepper film "A Single Rose", which made it to the th cut for the Oscar awards. Maddox received national acclaim for her portrayal of the character Rose. In addition, Sonya performed three songs for the film. Maddox also wrote and starred in Wonder, an autobiographical one-woman show. She wrote and sang all the lyrics for the productions score. Sonya continues to perform her music with a renewed sense of purpose.

Sonya joined forces with music legends Phil Upchurch and Howard McCray. "TRULY, CD" is produced independently by WONDERVISION Entertainment & Music all of the songs are by far, original.

As a classically trained singer, Sonya has been in the spotlight since the age of six, performing in musicals and classical choirs in both Atlanta and Los Angeles. She is a graduate of Atlanta's Northside School of Performing Arts, where she was given the opportunity to sing with a select group of performers in Mozart's "Vespare Soleness de Confessore." Sonya continues to perform her music, today with a renewed sense of purpose.
