<br />
The <strong>Delmarvalous Dolls</strong> will perform music from the 1940s at The Island Theater in Chincoteague, VA on Saturday, March 28 at 7:30 pm.<br />
<br />
The show features songs from The Andrews Sisters as well as Big Band
Swing for dancing. Three of the area’s finest Jazz singers will combine
their remarkable talents for this show: <a href="http://www.pamsings.com/" target="_blank">Pam Miller</a>, <a href="http://www.rhondaapple.com/" target="_blank">Rhonda Apple</a> &
Ev Cook.<br />
<br />
They’ll be accompanied by Wilmington native <a href="http://www.davidzipse.com/" target="_blank">David Zipse</a> on the piano.
He is a Summa Cum Laude graduate of Shenandoah Conservatory of Music.
David performed on the road for years, working with many bands, and was
musical director for more than 70 shows. He starred in “Gershwin, By
George” at the Riverfront Arts Center in Wilmington, where he won rave
reviews for his rousing rendition of “Rhapsody in Blue”.<br />
<br />
Rounding out the band will be <a href="http://www.zoominfo.com/p/Dave-Gladding/-138141" target="_blank">Dave Gladding</a> on drums, and <a href="http://www.trpt.com/" target="_blank">Jim Miller</a> on trumpet.<br />

It's time for my annual post on the "Greatest Jazz Festival in the World"! And I'll be there once again, holding court at The Cultured Pearl. New this year I'll be utilizing my pals "<a href="http://www.larksjazz.com/" target="_blank">The Larks</a>" for my backup band and they will also get plenty of space to showcase their own world class talents!<br />
<br />
In addition, I'll be reprising my famed 1920s show where I'll be dressed in period regalia and we'll be doing all those cool dance steps from way back then.<br />

Rather than commissioning another lot we decided to create a brand new compilation CD (click the <a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_bvHwAMd5GH0/S8Hc6acEs4I/AAAAAAAAE04/IERM67Te1ec/compilation_cd.png">CD picture</a> for a better look).<br /><br />This project features my personal picks of both previously released as well as new unreleased material I've recorded over the past 15 years or so of my professional career. It's a nice mix of jazz, pop and Broadway. Many of the tracks were digitally remastered for this CD and the sound quality is great!<br /></div></div><br />This one is not yet available for web purchase but if you're interested I'll have them with me at my shows, or send me an email to the address on the CD and I'll see about hooking you up.

The show was broadcast by <a href="http://www.npr.org/">NPR</a> as part on their annual New Year's Eve "<a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=122034990">Toast of the Nation</a>" event. You can <a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=122138519">click here</a> to listen to the entire concert (recommended!).<br /><br />Afterward we went backstage and hung out with the fabulous musicians, including their arranger <a href="http://www.donsebeskymusic.com/">Don Sebeskey</a> (genius). Jim also made acquaintances with <a href="http://www.kadleck.com/">Tony Kadleck</a>. Then it was up to the <a href="http://www.kennedy-center.org/">Kennedy Center</a> foyer to ring in the New Year with more music and champagne toasts.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">*****<br /></div>Pam Millerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17059048164663074048noreply@blogger.com
