We began 15 sentences that each person finished in their own words. Here’s what singer and entertainer, Dawn Jameson-Powers had to say about music, singing duets and everything in between.
I was born…
the day after Valentines day here in Phoenix, an Arizona native!
My favorite thing about Arizona…
you can wear flip flops in the winter 🙂
I’m listening to…
“Soul Vaccination” by Tower of Power. I’m recording a version of this song with The Phoenix Horns (www.PhoenixHorns.com) at the legendary Tempest Recording Studio.
My family…
is so supportive and loving. My gorgeous husband is finally back from Iraq, and my mini-me daughter is the sweetest little thing in the world. I couldn’t of asked for a better family!
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
a genie who would grant me 3 wishes!
One thing I cannot live without…
my flat iron. Without it I’d look like Don King instead of Dawn Jameson 🙂
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
When I was younger, I wanted to be… a singer. It started out by me throwing concerts for my dolls at age 4, then performing shows for the neighbors at age 6, and then organizing a girl’s singing group out of my mom’s daycare kids with me at age 7. I’d write songs and dance routines, teach it to them and then have my mom video tape it. I still have the old VHS tapes and they are HILARIOUS!
I’m inspired by…
Anyone who is trying to make a difference in the world.
The one person who motivates me is…
My husband. Days when i don’t have the motivation to keep going, he is right there behind me, encouraging me to do great things.
If could change anything in the world, it would be…
Poverty and hunger would never exist
The perfect day would be…
Waking up in the 2nd story bedroom of a beach front property to a delicious breakfast in bed. Then off to the spa for all of the best services they had to offer. After sunbathing at the beach and enjoying a healthy oceanside lunch, it’d be off to a shopping spree with no limit! Then i’d enjoy an amazing steak dinner at Mastro’s Steakhouse before headlining a stadium packed show. Ahhh, now that would be the perfect day!
My first job was…
A hostess at a Mexican restaurant when I was 16.
My favorite escape…
When I have the time, I like to travel anywhere tropical. There is something about the beach that frees my mind like nothing else.
My life…
has been full of surprises. Juggling being a performer, housewife, mother, and worship leader has had it’s challenges, but I am so grateful for everything that has been given to me.
I’m currently working on…
Every Tuesday-Friday at Mastro’s Steakhouse on Pinnacle Peak and Pima. My singing partner Joe Shank and I have just finished our first music video and are going to expand our performances nationwide.
