Biography

Anne-Regina's professional career started with performances of "Carmen", "La Boheme" and Kurt Weill's "Street Scene" with The New York City Opera Company, and The Metropolitan Opera Company, just to mention a few. Anne also starred in the off Broadway production of "Oliver", as the Artful Dodger. As a member of AFTRA (American Federation of Television and Radio Artists), Anne appeared in several TV commercials, such as The Singer Sewing Machine Company, Burger King and several others. In the late 90's, Anne became more involved in writing songs, singing and performing live, and perfecting her own style of pop music. At that time, she met producer, arranger and guitarist John Gatto (The Good Rats) who has had a very successful music career. Both are voting members of NARAS The Recording Academy (The Grammys). As a team they have successfully produced Anne-Regina's first CD, titled "Best Kept Secret" Look for it On Qopel Records.

  The world could surely do without another Jessica Simpson or Kylie Minogue, but Anne-Regina (transplanted from Queens to Bayville, Long Island) has a team of writers behind her that even Britney Spears could use. With lots of multi-tracked vocals and big, slick production, Best Kept Secret is tailor made and ready for top-10 commercial radio. Starting with dance pop that merges Shakira and latter day No Doubt, "Who Loves You" is the most immediate single, surging with faux-orchestra hits that are derisively conventional. But that's only a small problem here. After cribbing some lyrics from Michael Jackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel" on "Ooh," Anne-Regina eventually shows off her vocal range on "Don't Keep Me Waiting." "I Learned From You" is her serious, Whitney Houston side and "What Type of Guy" is her playful side. The local diva (who's been in TV commercials and opera companies) shouldn't need to fall into the Simpson/Minogue sex-kitten mold with a voice and songs like these, especially when she's good enough to sing the national anthem at a Long Island Ducks game later this year.
