‘Pretty Blues' Debut CD
Antoinette Montague is a Jazz singer who loves people and
thrills audiences with her crystal-clear tone, her range and her
emotional intensity.
Her ability to both belt the blues and swing with a jazz band is
in full evidence on her debut album “Pretty Blues." With a style
that can be powerful one moment and soft-and-delicate the next,
her lusty and soulful voice reaches right into the heart o f the
listener.
"I enjoy and learn from Bill Easley's no-nonsense approach to
music...he makes it look like magic," Montague says.
She was also influenced, as you would expect by Ella Fitzgerald,
Sarah Vaughn, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Billy Holliday
and Bessie Smith.
Montague has performed in the Great Women in Music Fes
tival at Birdland, N.Y. with the Duke Ellington Band (filmed by BET
on Jazz); Mike Longo's New York State of the Art Band for the 88th
Birthday Celebration of Dizzy Gillespie; and selected by a special
panel to perform at the 40th Anniversary of St. Peter's Church and
the 10th Anniversary of International Women in Jazz.
