  Renee Austin
 By Dianna

Renee AustinRenee' Austin was born in San Diego, California. She moved to Texas at the age of 3, growing up in the small town of Kingsland. By the age 4, she knew she wanted to be a singer, and her 1st performance was in the Andre Crouch Classic, in a small country Church. By the age of 15, she wrote her 1st song, and it became clear that she wanted to tour and perform and record.

Renee' Austin is a Blind Pig recording artist who has a wide range of style. She has been compared to Billy Holiday and Janis Joplin, with nearly a 5 octave range and stunning vocal dynamics. Renee Austin convincingly demonstrates that she's not simply up-and-coming, but mingles gracefully into the company of other esteemed singer-song writers greats. Her music styles range from a simple ballard to the blues and then house rocking gospel, and even a little bit of rock and roll.

She looks up to her mentor, music artist Delbert McClinton, grammy winning Master of Texas road house music. The pair recorded the song "Pretend We Never Met" on the "Sweet Talk" CD...on the Blind Pig record label.

Austin has shared the stage with such greats as Blues Travelers, Big Head Todd, and the Monster's, Keb Mo and Robert Cray.

Some of her accomplishments are as follows: Four Minnesota Music Academy Awards, and a nomination for a W.C. Handy award in the "Best New Artist Debut".

The band members are: Drums-Mark Bohn, Bass-Charles Hayes, Guitar-Baby Jake, Key Boards-Jon "JC" Deville Coleman.

She has several CD's: "Dancin with Mr. Blue" and "Sweet Talk", both on Blind Pig label. You can get more information about Renee' Austin on her website RENEE' AUSTIN.com or go to the Blind Pig record label website, by the same name....

I enjoyed myself the night she played here in the St. Louis, Mo area...If she ever comes your way...make it a point to go and see and hear her, you won't be disappointed...I wasn't...Thank you for a great time....
