A Little bit about Randi Cee…..

Randi Cee is a performer in every sense of the word.  These songs of the American song book are stories set to music.  With a wicked twinkle she can make you blush without having used a naughty word.  The songs are ripe with love, passion and the occasional drunken mistake and Randi Cee likes to bring them out of the past and into the present. Randi’s performing background includes Film, TV and Theatre. Acting/Singing/Dancing in Los Angeles, Europe and Japan (RandiPareira.com) One of her first jobs required her to sing with legendary composer John Williams. As he conducted her into the score for HOOK, she knew at that point that music would have to have it’s day in her career. Her passion for traditional jazz and big band music was set in motion by her Nana as a very young child. Listening to the Andrew Sisters as they drove to have raw oysters on Miami Beach.  How many six year olds like the Andrew Sisters with a side of raw shellfish? She has sung jazz in Los Angeles, New Orleans and New York City.  Has shared a spot on the bandstand with the likes of Bob Draga, John Reynolds, Dan Levinson, Katie Cavera Ben Polcer and Tom Fischer.  Randi is a present day “Red Hot Mama”.  The stories that live within these songs are just as pertinent now as when they were written. Randi Cee and The Speakeasy’s might remind you of a bye gone era, but Randi’s interpretation gives the old tunes a spin that all generations can appreciate. As Bessie Smith crooned “A Good Man Is Hard To Find” But good music isn’t hard to find. You have found it! It’s alive, vibrant and ready to excite a whole new batch of hipsters.

Randi’s Longer Bio

Randi Cee (Randi Cee Pareira and yes the Cee is her real middle name) Is a Los Angeles based performer. According to her mother she started dancing and singing upon arrival. But according to Randi Cee: “MGM musicals perfectly ruined me, who wouldn’t want to live their life singing dancing and acting?”  After completion of a BA in theatre from UCLA., her love for classical theatre took her to England to study Chekhov and Shakespeare. Upon returning to the states she was cast in Steven Spielberg’s Hook. For this role she was required to be a triple threat, getting to sing with John Williams as her conductor, was an amazing experience. She has danced and acted in countless projects reaching across Film/Television/Commercials and Industrials,  including Feature Films: Legally Blonde,The Man That Wasn’t There (Coen Brothers), The Wedding Planner, Hook, TV: Glee, Mike and Molly, How I Met Your Mother, The New Normal, The Neighbors, Raising Hope.

She has appeared twice on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. To see her interact with Jay visit RandiPareira.com. Randi’s passion for traditional jazz and big band music was first ignited by her Nana.  And then later when she was taken to the Jazz Festival in Los Angeles by her mother.  There she fell in love with an even early form of the music.  The movie musicals of the 30 and 40’s  planted the seeds for this career and  the composers that dominated those musicals were now coming to life for her in a whole new way.  She longed to be the one singing those stories. Those bluesy soulful inspirations of the past like Bessie Smith and Sophie Tucker ignited her passion even further.   The desire to have her own band and sing these songs is a dream come true For Randi Cee.  The stories are just as pertinent now as when they were written.
