Internationally renowned for her sensuous alto voice and dynamic stage presence, Paulette Dozier has thrilled audiences performing in major jazz festivals, nightclubs and theaters. Additionally, she has opened for the likes of music greats Roy Ayers and Erykah Badu; as well as the legendary comedian Shelley Berman.
A career milestone for this jazzy chanteuse was the release of her last CD, "Over & Over Again." Like her debut album "With You," "Over & Over Again" received national airplay and acclaim from noted jazz critics. On both projects her producer, pianist Mike Levine, skillfully blends vintage songs with contemporary arrangements. This combination, according to John Gilbert of E-Jazz News, "...works as smoothly as cashmere feels." Paulette breaths new life into these nostalgic tunes with a unique interpretative style that is hers and hers alone. This lady's "...voice puts people under a natural spell," raves Susan Frances of Jazz Review. And her music is definitely "...worth hearing," says jazz critic Scott Yanow.
Paulette Dozier is a Renaissance woman who doesn't just excite a room - she ignites it! And in this 4th of July presentation you can expect her to light up the stage. Her show features music from both her CDs, a repertoire reminiscent of the golden era of jazz. Her performance evokes the vocal styling of Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee and Billie Holiday; and the flamboyance of none other than Josephine Baker. The showmanship that these grande dames brought to the stage both inspires and permeates Paulette's show to leave her audience thirsting for more. "Paulette Dozier turns out to be the authentic item, singer, stage performer, provocateur," says Michael Bailey of All About Jazz, [and she] "...must really be something live."
