Donna McElroy

(This class will be in English)

Early influences ranged from Diana Ross and the Supremes and Mahalia Jackson to Judy Garland, Julie Andrews, Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughan, and Ella Fitzgerald; and that was just the female side of the vocal world! Sammy Davis, Jr., Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Andy Williams, Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby, Joe Williams, Johnny Mathis, James Brown, Donnie Hathaway, …you name it! If they were on TV or in a movie shown on TV, Donna was all over their voices, imitating and recreating their sound!

When Donna was young the terms “lick,” and “run” did not have a recognized role in vernacular; riffing and running were not the accepted terms used to explain the emotional adjustment to melodies; you just could SINNNNG, or you couldn’t! Donna always could!

Winning local talent contests, appearing as early as age 10 on local music fare, by the time it was Donna’s chance to choose a college destination, the obvious choice was Fisk University, three hours’ drive from her home in Louisville, and the perfect opportunity to learn more about the heritage of Black Music and the African Diaspora! You see, Fisk was the home of the world-renowned Fisk Jubilee Singers, the natural progression for Donna. Also, the musical influences of Donny Hathaway, Roberta Flack, Gil Scott Heron, Deneice Williams, and all the artists of the Fabulous 70’s and 80’s record industry in America! The Fisk experience also lent to her expressiveness and her song writing development.
