~A difficult question or riddle, especially one using a play on words in the answer; A difficult choice or decision that must be made.....


I decided on calling our band Sweet Konundrum, because at the time it seemed fitting based on the circumstances,decisions and sacrifices I had to make to be able to launch this vision. Fortunately, I have been blessed despite a few hurdles along the way.....
Our shows consist of cover tunes ranging from artist like: Sade,Erykah Badu,Mary J. Blidge’s, Jill Scott, and Barbara Morrison. Not to mention our own original tracks.

I have been performing since I was a child and still holding strong and capable of ‘rockin’ a crowd. So, I look forward to the future and thank all that have been supportive ! We love you and the Show will go on!!!....
