(vocal jazz) Shaynee Rainbolt - At Home - 2006, MP3, 320 kbps

Born in Los Angeles, it was no surprise to Shaynee Rainbolt's parents that their daughter would come into the world singing and dancing. Music, theater and creativity were in her blood. Shaynee's mother loved jazz and was a devotee of the Great American Song Book while her father William Rainbolt was an actor/singer and two time Emmy Award winning television director. Her uncle, Leon Levitch is a noted composer of classical music whereas her uncle, Edward Levitch wrote a book recounting the family's escape from Belgrade and the Holocaust during WWII.
2003 was a banner year for Shaynee Rainbolt beginning with the release of From This Moment On, her critically acclaimed debut CD on the UK record label 33 Jazz. Following a sold out performance at the Plush Room to launch her debut disc, Ms. Rainbolt made successful debut performances at Danny's Skylight Room in New York City and at the prestigious Pizza On the Park jazz venue in London. Shaynee's New York show was chosen as a Critic's Pick by Time Out Magazine and her CD was featured on the legendary Joe Franklin's nantionally syndicated radio show, on the BBC Radio in the UK, and locally on San Francisco's Jazz radio KKSM.
"We are thrilled to be able to add Shaynee Rainbolt to 33 Jazz Records distinguished list of artists. ....she fits our ongoing mission of seeking out and promoting new and distinctive voices in Jazz."
Paul Jolly, 33 Records, U.K.
Shaynee's music theater background makes her equally at home singing Broadway or jazz standards. In San Francisco, Shaynee performs at popular nightspots such as the Plush Room, Jazz at Pearl’s, The Cosmopolitan Cafe, The Beat Lounge, The Purple Onion, La Tasca and Kelly's of Alameda. Away from home, Shaynee has been heard at London's famed Pizza on the Park, New York City's Danny's Skylight Room, and Los Angeles' recently renovated Feinstein's at the Cinegrill. She also sings for private events, and benefits supporting charitable organizations such as the Most Holly Redeemer AIDS Support Group, Bread and Roses and Teddy Care, the annual cabaret fundraiser for Shanti and the Children of San Francisco General Hospital.
Shaynee's many exciting off-stage projects include Rainbolt Hampton Arts, a California Nonprofit Corporation that supports arts education causes and arts related community service programs. Some of the programs they have either sponsored or produced include the West Coast Cabaret Conference San Francisco, Opera By the Bay Vocal Competition in Sausalito, Ca., grants for underprivileged students to attend music classes and camps (ongoing), and eCabaret-SF.com, a free web/email based resource for performers and clubs in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Shaynee currently resides in San Rafael, CA with her husband David, and their three cats, but has purchased a home in New York City and will be performing there in 2005 as well as continuing her executive leadership with Stu Smith of Tin Pan Alley Productions educational and grant making efforts to benefit the musical community coast to coast.
