by Jason AnkenyRenowned for her elastic contralto and jazz-scat vocal gymnastics, singer Phoebe Snow was born Phoebe Laub on July 17, 1952 in New York City. During her childhood in Teaneck, New Jersey, she initially studied piano, but switched to the guitar in her teens, writing poetry which gradually mutated into her first songs. Overcoming her stage fright, Snow began playing Greenwich Village clubs in the early 1970s, honing an eclectic set which spotlighted both folk and pop sounds as well as jazz, blues and even torch songs.After signing to Leon Russells Shelter label, Snow issued her self-titled debut LP in 1974; on the strength of her Top Five smash Poetry Man, the album itself rose to the number four position. A tour with Paul Simon followed, along with an appearance on his hit Gone at Last; after returning to the studio, Snow emerged in 1976 with Second Childhood, another highly successful effort which, like its predecessor, achieved gold-selling status.Despite a flurry of records throughout the latter half of the decade, including 1977s It Looks Like Snow, 1977s Never Letting Go, and 1978s Against the Grain, Snow receded from view as the 1980s dawned, and following the release of 1981s Rock Away she did not record again for eight years.Upon signing to Elektra, Snow resurfaced in 1989 with Something Real, followed by a series of New York club appearances as a member of ex-Steely Dan frontman Donald Fagens all-star Rock and Soul Revue. Apart from lending her voice to a number of radio and television advertisements, Snow again fell silent in subsequent years, although in 1994 she appeared at Woodstock with a gospel group additionally comprised of Mavis Staples, CeCe Peniston and Thelma Houston. Two albums were recorded and released during the late 90s and early 2000s: 1998s I Cant Complain and 2003s Natural Wonder.
