Sheilah Glover has been creating musical offerings in various forms for 3 decades.  Whether it has been with Nicholas, Glover & Wray; Broadway legend, Barbara Cook; drum goddess, Barbara Borden; or the SF Bay Area's Starduster Orchestra, her flawless vocals have complimented the best of the best.

Sheilah  is most renowned for her involvement in the award-winning trio Nicholas, Glover and Wray - three distinct voices and personalities that blend into a harmonious and vibrant ensemble, singing pop, jazz and their own original material. In their thirty years together, NGW has received numerous awards and played in almost every venue imagineable, appropriate to jazz and cabaret. In the 1980's the trio toured extensively in the East Coast, eventually performing and touring with Barbara Cook, one of the world's premiere song-stylists, in 'Barbara Cook, a Broadway Evening'.

In 1997, Sheilah co-produced Pilar’s popular release, Fierce Joy. She also began a decade-long  relationship as one of the lead vocalists with the Starduster Orchestra, a 15-piece Big Band which caught the popular swing craze in the Bay Area. That same year, she and her partner, Elaine Belle, went to China to adopt their daughter, Lotus. In the process of telling bedtime stories, Sheilah became interested in the craft of storytelling and went to Dominican University to study with Ruth Stotter, receiving a Certificate in Storytelling in 2000. She has performed in libraries, schools, birthday parties and storytelling festivals, combining great world tales with music and song.

In 2000 she began a private practice of Vocal Coaching and now has a full and vital teaching practice, also teaching Middle School Music at Marin Horizon School.  In 2002 Sheilah was inspired to write a one-woman show based on the Enneagram, an ancient system of personality types. She was joined in the project by Julia Foster, former director of the Denver Enneagram Institute, and in 2004 they performed the play, ‘Is Ennybody Home?’ to sold-out audiences in the Bay Area, and have taken it on the road throughout the years to Colorado, Oregon and Mexico.
