DESCRIPTION:
Brandi Wells was a Soul Singer based in Philadelphia.

She first appeared professionally in the group the Twilights while still at school.

Those recordings were for the Harathon label (at the age of 9), on the songs 'Shipwreck' and 'It's Been So Long'.

Another member of the band was Ellis Hall.

In 1972, she left to join Major Harris's backing singers Brown Sugar.

A year later she formed Breeze, who backed acts such as Billy Paul, Fat Larry and Philly Cream (a.k.a. Ingram), as well as recording in their own right on the WMOT label.

Breeze then evolved into Slick who had a UK Top 20 hit 'Space Bass' in 1979 and then charted with 'Sexy Cream' shortly afterwards.

She also sang the song 'Sunrise' for the group in 1980. Brandi Wells died at the Crozer-Chester Medical Center in her native Chester, Pennsylvania on March 24, 2003 from breast cancer. She was 47 years old
