Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Juno Award winner Divine Brown is giving flowers to one of her heroes, Minnie Riperton. Divine’s live concert stage show, Lovin' You: The Minnie Riperton Story, is coming to Toronto’s Luminato Festival this month. Though Minnie Riperton died when she was just 31, Divine tells Tom Power how the five-octave range singer was still able to make such an important impact on music, one that stretches right through to today.
