Siedah Garret is a timeless artist known not just for her decades of award-winning singing and songwriting but also for her humanitarian spirit, Siedah Garrett was first discovered by Quincy Jones, and has toured internationally as backup and featured vocalist with Jones, Michael Jackson, Madonna, and others. She is best known for co-writing Michael Jackson’s mega-hit “Man in the Mirror,” and having recorded as MJ’s duet partner on his chart-topping BAD album lead single “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You”. Garrett won a GRAMMY Award and earned an Oscar nomination for her song “Love You, I Do” performed by Jennifer Hudson in the film adaptation of the Broadway smash musical, Dreamgirls. Her second Academy Award nomination came as the result of co-writing the song “Real In Rio” with Sergio Mendes from the blockbuster animated film, Rio.

Siedah has become a go-to lyricist for special events and social causes, such as co-writing two theme songs for the Special Olympics World Games, the musical theme for the World Expo in Shanghai, the American Idol Gives Back campaign, Fergie’s “L.O.V.E. (Let One Voice Emerge)” song to encourage voter participation, her Autism Awareness theme song “It’s Time to Listen,” and her benefit single, “Carry On”, for the Race to Erase MS charity. Last year, Siedah was named by UNESCO as a recipient of their coveted Peace Ambassador Award.

Garrett has begun to transition into lyric writing for musical theatre and music-centric television. In 2019, Siedah partnered with Academy Award-nominated composer John Debney, to create songs for a musical theater holiday production entitled “My Silent Night”, and is now collaborating with multi-GRAMMY winning composer/producer Harvey Mason Jr. on the musical theater production of Will Smith’s blockbuster film, “The Pursuit of Happyness.” She also has signed on as featured songwriter for the 4th and final season of the hit Netflix series, “Dear White People.”

Last year, Garrett released a new, thought-provoking single, “The New Frontier (Say Their Names)”, in tribute to George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and all other African–American men, women and children who have died from questionable police tactics (with all proceeds being donated to the Black Lives Matter organization).

Most recently, Siedah has released her seminal classic “Do You Want It Right Now” across streaming platforms for the first time ever via Tinted Records. “Do You Want It Right Now” was featured in the 1985 movie ‘Fast Forward,’ and the iconic anthem is still considered as one of the game changers during the pivot into the ‘80s ‘Freestyle’. Now, the record is finally being accompanied by an official 4-track remix package from Eden Prince, Dr Packer, Jolyon Petch and BluePrint.

She continues to reside in Los Angeles and is married to former RCA Records VP/A&R, Erik Nuri, who also serves as her talent manager.
