A favorite of ours. Evergreen Performing Arts Center in Oshkosh hosts musical and arts events for their patrons. Not your typical retirement home. Every year we perform there, we are enlightened and encouraged by the residents. Last time we met a spunky woman who had just turned 101! A pleasure and honor to perform there.
Imagine, elegant dining in a warm and classy environment while listening to vibrant jazz! Ridgeway Country Club is our venue. A venue that is perfect for a dinner show. Janet Planet Jazz will entertain you and the theme will be LOVE. Typically availed only to members, this performance will be open to the public! Inquire and get your seats now. A Lovely Evening...indeed!
Nancy Wilson influenced my singing as she had many other jazz singers who first heard her sense of phrasing, intonation and bell tone sound. She was a defined singer and sounded like no one else. We'll be "re-creating" some of Nancy's recordings from her album with Cannonball Adderley. One of the many albums that changed me. The mp3 in this post is definitely "early Planet" (my first album) and you can hear some of Nancy's influence, jamming on the straight tones....yikes!
Spring is here. Come and listen. Listen local as you support locally grown food and a locally owned, awesome venue.
We'll be celebrating this beautiful venue with John Harmon's music and beyond!
