GREENWOOD LAKE PUBLIC LIBRARY
NEW: Award-Winning “Music Makers Concert Series:
From Jazz to Soul”
featuring Rhonda Denét & The Silver Fox Trio
Sun., 01/18/15
1:30-3 p.m. (free FAMILY program)

Music Makers Concert Series at the Greenwood Lake Public Library presents “From Jazz to Soul” featuring Rhonda Denét & The Silver Fox Trio. The Library is located at 79 Waterstone Road in Greenwood Lake, New York.

Rhonda Denét and The Silver Fox Trio pay homage to the great soul and jazz divas at this concert highlighting a collection of jazz standards and soul classics that span five decades, with hits from the time when Ella Fitzgerald was dubbed “The First Lady of Song” through the era when Aretha Franklin was crowned “The Queen of Soul.”

Homage will also be paid to jazz greats, such as Billie Holiday, Nancy Wilson, and Nina Simone, as well as soul divas, such as Etta James, Martha Reeves, Mary Wells, and Gladys Knight. Join us!

Denét is hailed as a virtuoso that lends her flair to every song she sings. Her repertoire covers the gamut, ranging from the American Songbook to Top 40 radio, in addition to her inspirational, original compositions.

Based in Jersey City, New Jersey, the jazz/soul vocalist, songwriter, and bandleader performs throughout the New York metropolitan region and across the country, with appearances at concert halls, theaters, clubs, resorts, museums, premier wedding venues, and libraries. She performs regularly with her band, The Bad Cats, as a lead vocalist for The Kazz Music Orchestra, as a cast member of the Off-Broadway show, “The Gong Show LIVE,” and in “Echoes of Sinatra” with vocalist, Steve Kazlauskas, for “Ella & Frank: A Tribute.”

In addition, she is proud to be the founder and primary performer for the Silver Fox Songs showcase series, a program which brings live music to appreciative populations at various community service organizations and celebrates American classics from jazz to soul.

In 2010, she released a self-produced EP of original music entitled Another Day, which was followed by a full-length LIVE album, “Bliss & The Eclectic Soul,” in the spring of 2013.
