She has been described as a "Female Robert Plant". Many have said she has the power of Janis Joplin and the soul of Aretha Franklin.

Tingle was born and raised in northern California by musician parents and grandparents. She moved to Los Angeles immediately out of high school and began gigging and recording. She landed a job as a "session vocalist" for the writers at Almo-Irving Publishing, part of A & M Records. Top writers hired Tingle to sing their songs to submit to everyone from Tina Turner to Dolly Parton. She was noted for her quick ear and ability to sing many different styles, accents, etc. After years of working "behind the scenes" in the studios, except for the occasional gig, she decided to move away from Los Angeles to Austin. There she would find more venues and opportunity to hone her craft.

Tingle moved to Texas and formed Black Pearl, a polished rock band. Her songs from that first CD caught the ears of a few t.v. execs and several were placed on episodes of "Beverly Hills 90210" and "Melrose Place".

Quickly gaining the attention of studios in Texas, Tingle began more work inside the publishing world again, singing for t.v. and radio commercials, films, and songwriters. After meeting Ray Benson, she was hired to sing on several soundtracks with Benson, including Jean-Claude Van Damme's "Universal Soldier". Then later, Tingle and Thiel both worked on Sandra Bullock's "Miss Congeniality" and Robert Rodriguez's "Spy Kids 3".

Progressing forward by going solo after the Black Pearl CD, she released 5 more CD's under her own name, all to great reviews. This music gained attention from European radio stations and she was quickly added in rotation on England's BBC radio. She continues to enjoy European support from fans there, thanks to the Internet!
