Andromeda’s professional career started with Ray Charles as a background vocalist or "Raelette". During her time with the Ray Charles Orchestra she was promoted to vocal director and arranger while performing as the lead Raelette. After working with Mr. Charles, Andromeda starred in Woody Allen's "Murder Mystery Blues" at the Midtown Theater in New York in which she was acting, singing, dancing and playing the piano during the show.



Andromeda has formal training in Vocal Performance / Music Business from Berklee College of Music, in Theater from the Boston Conservatory and in Dance from Alvin Ailey and Dance Theater of Harlem. She also studied piano and composition with Sonelius Smith.



An international success, Andromeda was featured with the Jazz Big Band at Tokyo Disney in Japan for 14 months. While there, she recorded her debut album “Introducing Andromeda Turre” which was up for a 2008 Grammy for Best Vocal Jazz Album. The self-produced album contains four original songs and several jazz classics all arranged by Ms.Turre. Andromeda also received much success in Italy while touring there over the winter and is really looking forward to returning there in the spring. Most recently Andromeda completed a 4 month residency in Beijing, China performing at it's most premiere night spot, "Centro".



Based in Los Angeles, CA, Andromeda continues to perform both original works and standards with her own group as well as being a featured vocalist with many other bands. In addition, she works as a vocal coach, songwriter, arranger, producer and performance coach. Her second album is due out later this year with mega-producer Steven Shewbrooks. With a valid passport, Andromeda continues to take her voice all over the world.
