Stella Heath Performing The Billie Holiday Project

Stella Heath debuted The Billie Holiday Project in 2019 and quickly started selling out houses all over the Bay Area. The Billie Holiday Project started first as a musical collaboration between vocalist Stella Heath and pianist Neil Angelo Fontano. It scaled up the production for the much-anticipated 2025 Birthday Show to celebrate Billie’s 110th birthday and features Big Band arrangements by Neil Fontano. 

Singing since the age of eight, Stella grew up in the North San Francisco Bay Area, steeped in her mother’s eclectic music collection. Some of her early musical influences were Louis Armstrong, Edith Piaf, Buena Vista Social Club, Billie Holiday, Tom Waits, Bod Dylan and Ella Fitzgerald.
