Nadine Brown

Nadine was truly a soul singer, somewhat of a cross between Millie Jackson and Mavis Staples. She poured herself into singing and it was all natural. She never had any formal musical training. Her home was in Jacksonville, Florida and owned a beauty salon near Smyrna. So maybe she moved to Georgia at some time. She was very easy to work with and had a promising future and was progressing, though slowly, when she was hit by a car as a pedestrian, that took her life in 1988.
