November is Native American Heritage and National Novel Writing Month
The heritage of many Americans includes Native American. Cartwright said, "My mother's mother was Cherokee and my father's mother was Arawak. Therefore, I relate wholeheartedly to the experience of Native Americans." ~ Diva JC Photo: Leo Reinfeld
TWO
FABULOUS PIANISTS
Hailing from Jacksonville,
Florida, Sharon Marie is an extraordinary vocalist who brings a unique
& distinguished sense of jazz history to her song stylings. “Her
approach to standards, show tunes and classic jazz is charming and
refreshing…” says the LA Jazz Scene Magazine. She often employs rhythmic
and tempo variations that breathe enjoyable new life into familiar
standards. Her brilliant interpretations and her smooth mellifluous sound
leave a lasting impression on her listeners, that is truly unforgettable! Reminiscent of a time gone by, yet
is distinctively contemporary, her vast
background in musical theatre and concert performance shines through in
the poise and humor that keep her audiences captivated. Accompanied by
world class musicians on piano, bass, drums, and sax she fondly dubs them
“The Bad Boyz of Jazz”. They are known for their aggressive
rhythmic interpretations and their smooth sensual sound. Sit back, and
listen to the romantic melodies of Sharon Marie Cline and The Bad Boyz of
Jazz.
