A Sultry Night of Jazz with Pauline Wilson
Pauline Wilson is an American jazz/pop singer best known as lead vocalist with the jazz/fusion group Seawind in the 1970's and early 80's. Born and raised in Hilo, Hawaii, she won a Grammy Award for Best Recording for Children in 1979 for her duet "Friends" with George Benson, part of the album In Harmony/A Sesame Street Record and voiced The Fairy on the track "My Fairy In The Crystal Reeds (And Other Frogs)" from Michel Colombier's album Old Fool Back On Earth. During most of Seawind's main period of activity, Pauline was married to Bob Wilson, the drummer/main songwriter of the group. As a duo, they released a contemporary Christian album, "Somebody Loves You", in 1981. She has also released several solo albums. Herb Caen, famed San Francisco columnist, once wrote: "She could sing the "Q" section of the Terre Haute phonebook and tears would well up in my eyes.”
Her professional debut was with Larry Williams, Kim Hutchcroft, Bud Nuanez, Ken Wild, Jerry Hey and Bob Wilson as the popular Hawaii group called "Ox". In 1976 they moved to Los Angels to advance their career and changed the group's name to "Seawind". They per-formed throughout the world and she recorded four albums with them. The next nineteen years were spent performing, doing commercials, touring and recording soundtracks and back-ground vocals as a session artist for the likes of Bruce Hornsby, Bill Medley, Brenda Russell, Michael Colombier, Celine Dion, the Crusaders and many more. She has toured with Seawind, Boz Scaggs, George Benson, Michael Paulo and the Pauline Wilson Band through the US, the Philippines and the orient. In 1979 she received a Grammy Award for her duet, "Friends", with George Benson on the "In Harmony" album.
