Pam Morita got hit with the jazz bug as a graduate classical piano student when she heard Joe Williams sing with the Count Basie Band at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The band swung so hard that it influenced Pam to pursue a career in jazz piano and voice. At that moment she knew she had to play jazz!
Pam continues to work as freelance musician and play at such places as Eddie V’s and the Silverleaf Country Club. She is an adjunct professor at Paradise Valley Community College and Musical Director at Asbury United Methodist Church.
