Overview
The Steppin’ Out Jazz Band invites you to their tribute event for one of the greatest Jazz vocalists of the 20th century, Peggy Lee, at Technopolis 20 in Paphos, on Friday, November 23, 2018, at 20:00.
Peggy Lee’s vocal flexibility and cool, breathy voice brought sultry distinction to big band showstoppers, pop ballads and soulful laments. She was considered in the same league as Billie Holiday, Mildred Bailey, Ella Fitzgerald, and Bessie Smith. Her alluring tone, distinctive delivery, breadth of material, and ability to write many of her own songs made her one of the most captivating artists of the vocal era, from her breakthrough on the Benny Goodman hit ‘Why Don’t You Do Right’ to her many solo successes, singles including ‘Lover’ and ‘Fever’ that showed her bewitching vocal power, a balance between sultry swing and impeccable musicianship.
The band consists by Alice Ayvazian (voice), Konstantinos Efraimidis (clarinet/saxophone), Dimitris Miaris (piano) and Costas Challoumas (double bass).
Entrance: €10
