Meet Vanessa Salvucci. She's a Bostonian with a killer voice. Last Friday at Johnny D's in Somerville, I had the honor of photographing her along with a few other acts. Vanessa sings The Star Spangled Banner at many major Boston sports events, as well as a catalog of music from the 20th century. Plus, she writes and co-produces original material.
Vanessa graduated from Boston University, and then studied under Mark Goff at the Walt Disney World Resort. Vanessa almost lost her voice to thyroid cancer. She moved back to Boston for treatment and now lends her talents to the American Cancer Society.
Check her out. She's a bad ass.
