Success and Matrimony
Mrs. Shireen and Ricky Jones, known as Crutchfield Jones, is a perfectly imperfect union juggling marriage, music, and careers, while being full time parents. It’s a musical marriage with equal billing, both separate and together, in their careers. Shireen and Ricky met 30 years ago at Motown Records in Hollywood, California. Shireen was the lead singer of the 90’s chart-topping group, The Good Girls, and Ricky, the lead singer of the popular harmonic group Yours Truly. Sharing the same manager, they frequented the same events, but it wasn’t until leaving Motown that they started a friendship. Their careers took them in different directions. Shireen began modeling and acting heavily, working with notable figures like Giorgio Armani, Chanel, Calvin Klein, Taraji P. Henson and Will Smith. Ricky released two solo albums, one on Universal Records, and the other, as an independent project. He too worked with notable industry greats like Lionel Ritichie, Babyface and Aaron Neville. Together, Crutchfield Jones are preparing to traveled and promote their music.
