Club Gig
In the months to come, Club Gig will be offering downloadable tunes in
addition to our initial CD offering. Club Gig will bring you the best of
jazz, R&B, Blues, rock and roll, Bee Bop, and Doo Wop pop singers and
instrumentalists. These artists have been playing the clubs for years,
making a living as teachers, mail carriers, or pick up work here and
there. The clubs are closing. These artists are struggling to survive. But
they are great and original. Stay tuned for these exciting performers.
MALVONIA SMITH Our solo artist to launch Club Gig is Malvonia Smith--a jazz, R&B, rock and
roll and bee bop fabulotistic!!! singer.
Listen to Lady M:
She can do it all. In her jazz voice, Lady M is another Billie Holiday.
Lady M grew up in the Detroit
world of Dizzie Gillespie and Nat King Cole -- singing for Gillespie when she
was only 5. A former backup singer for Natalie Cole, Malvonia is now 58,
the mother of three girls. As the survivor of a recent liver transplant,
Smith was singing a week after surgery. She is a Vaboomer with a vocal
gift and a powerful message of joy, survival and love.
This offering is in her
Sassy CD pop voice, singing an original tune she wrote and composed. If this does not get you up and off your butt and dancing -- nothing will!
