Toni Green, a Memphis native, began her singing career in 1970 at the infamous Hi-Records with Imported Moods. She recorded her first solo record Mixed Emotions in 1998 with legendary producer Willie Mitchell. She went on to sing backup with Luther Vandross and Isaac Hayes, toured, and performed in a duo with Dennis Edwards of the Temptations. This award winning singing sensation has toured the world, opening for such acts as Carlos Santana, Dionne Warwick and Solomon Burke. She most recently returned from living part time in Paris, France and recently released another long awaited recording with R&B Group Malted Milk, entitled Milk & Green. Since Toni has been back home, she has worked feverishly on community causes and has taken up a true desire to bring wholeness to the Greater Memphis Community. For this reason, you will see her name on the ballot for City Council District 7 this November.
