520 a| Singer Irma Thomas was born Irma Lee on February 18, 1941 in Ponchatoula, Louisiana. She was raised in New Orleans and began singing with a Baptist Church choir and a gospel quartet. At the age of eleven, Thomas won The Ritz Theater's talent night. Two years later, she auditioned for Specialty Records. Her big break came in 1959 when she captured the attention of bandleader Tommy Ridgley at New Orleans' Pimlico Club. Thomas' single, Wish Someone Would Care, was the biggest hit of her career and reached #17 on Billboard's pop charts in the spring of 1964. Her comeback as a recording artist started in 1986 when she co-produced an album, The New Rules, with Scott Billington for Rounder Records. Thomas received two Grammy nominations in 1989 and 1991. She and her husband owned and operated a night club in New Orleans called the Lion's Den until it was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.;
