Ramona Collins

Singer, songwriter, actress, educator, emcee, and radio personality Ramona Collins is a premier entertainer. Audiences throughout the Midwest have known for quite some time this Toledo-based singer is one of the region’s true treasures and best-kept secrets. Born in Toledo, Ohio, Ramona was reared in Lansing, Michigan by a jazz pianist/singer mother, the late Alice Carter, who encouraged her daughter to sing at an early age to combat shyness. Today, anyone fortunate enough to witness the veteran performer at work will detect not a whit of shyness. Sultry, seasoned, witty and cool are words that come to mind when experiencing this engaging performer whose command of the stage and vast repertoire have helped her establish a solid rapport with club, concert and festival audiences wherever she goes.
