Gwen Hughes

Gwen Hughes has produced an enormous impression on Atlanta’s jazz picture, so much in order that she’s been discussed within this Joint Is Jumpin’, a nonfiction book about golf swing, in addition to in a function of fiction, the secret novel Dance Made Easy by Phillip DePoy, section of his Flap Tucker series. Her Contact of Life record was designated for merit with the Grammy Honours for Greatest Jazz Efficiency and Greatest Jazz Female Documenting. Not as well shabby for somebody who started out much less a jazz vocalist, but as a vocalist in a rock and roll & roll music group. She even devote time delivering present tunes and performing. However when she uncovered the complexities of jazz, she was connected. Hughes shaped herself right into a tune stylist and implemented in the footsteps of such performers as Peggy Lee and Frank Sinatra and something of her inspirations can be Ella Fitzgerald. She fronts a music group named the Vintage Jazz Kats. People are drummer Forrest Robinson; bassist Neal Starkey; guitarist Steve Cunningham; saxophonists Sam Skelton, John Freeman, and Nick Longo; trombonists Adam Mewherter and Bob Lewis; trumpeters Joe Gransden and Ken Gregory; and pianists Costs Anschell, Arthur Turner, Bob Cardone, and Costs Wilson.
