THEO FORSETT A TRIPPLE THREAT

At the age of six, Theo Forsett knew rhythm and blues was his calling.  Like most of the greats, he began singing in the church choir.  Branching out of a musical family, and being the youngest of six, singing became natural to him.  Theo Forsett left his hometown, Bartow, Florida, and headed for Los Angeles, to further his career.  He performed at local clubs and wherever he could.  He received approval from renowned artists and producers. While in the process of making a name for himself as a solo R&B singer, Theo was asked to sing background vocals for Diana Ross, and Eddie Murphy’s How Could It Be album, produced by Stevie Wonder.  Theo Forsett has recently returned with his new album Love At Your Fingertips.  His singles, Love At Your Fingertips and More Than Enough, are quickly gaining momentum among R&B listeners. He remains persistent in his career in music and the arts.
