A NEW ORLEANS-FOCUSED CD IS CURRENTLY BEING RECORDED BY OLIVIA.  IT SHOWCASES  A VARIETY OF ILLUSTRIOUS AREA MUSICIANS, CELEBRATING NEW ORLEANS'  MUSICAL GIFTS TO THE WORLD.
 
THE RELEASE IS SET FOR FALL 2010. 




A volunteer Show Host on world-renowned WWOZ (90.7fm and www.wwoz.org) in her spare time, Olivia has been a professional in the music industry since 1978.

Olivia Greene began singing in the church, and she still does. Gospel is an ongoing passion.


Being a member of Louisiana Hall of Fame inductee Deacon John's Jump Blues Band, Deacon John and The Ivories Band, and singing background for the "Lost Soul Queen" Betty Harris led to Olivia becoming a featured singer in the late, great Eddie Bo's band.

Post-Katrina, Olivia became a band leader herself, including some of New Orleans' finest musicians in her ensemble. Her innovative group satisfies listeners with traditional jazz, classy Great American Songbook tunes and timeless New Orleans favorites.

The Olivia Greene Combo has performed at posh jazz venues including Snug Harbor and Sweet Lorraine's, at legendary clubs like Donna's and Buffa's, and at elegant New Orleans landmarks such as The Columns and Hotel Monteleone.

They also enjoy playing at private parties.


Touring occasionally, Olivia calls New Orleans home.
