Hi Fellow Jazz Lovers,

You are invited to help me get my debut cd released by March of 2013 by pre-ordering it at a discounted price at KickStarter.com.

Many of you know me as the Host of Savoy Jazz every Monday Night! Some of you are even aware that I'm also a long time singer on the Pittsburgh jazz scene! What most of you don't know, I've been working on my debut album entitled "Escape to Love" for a little over 2 years! I'm please to say it is completed and…

There was a galactic and planetary shift of consciousness last December.

On the 21st we aligned with our solar system, the galaxy and the

universe....whether or not you spent the solstice hiding in a bunker

with a gross of rations and water purification tablets, in prayer with

drums and chanting to the moon or madly purchasing gifts to prove to

your loved ones that you really do care (I myself did a little of each, I

like to keep my bases covered), whatever…

Happy Holidays everyone! Thanks to all of you who were able to attend our Special Edition of Monday Night Jazz @ Savoy, featuring the exciting new group, "Elevations"! These five young jazz lions were a smash hit, the joint was jumpin' and it was packed (in spite of the rain). It's not surprising that they are beginning to take the jazz world by storm, what with mentors the likes of Roger Humphries, Dwayne Dolphin and Sean Jones, how could they not!  And Savoy was happy to be among the first…

Who were these veritable gentlemen who in the early 1950's promoted jazz gigs with artists like Charlie Parker at venues such as the Syria Mosque?

Musicians,

As a Big Fan of Jazz, I just want you to know how much your audience appreciates your talents as do I. It is however disheartening ,when the audience is not acknowledged during a performance. I have recently attended a performance, where the musicians talk among themselves in between songs and yawn during their performance. I, as an appreciative fan, make an effort to support your love of this awesome music and just want to be shown a little respect in return. Please address…

Hi everyone,

Please note that the title for the posting about Monday Night Jazz @ Savoy for November 12, 2012 mistakenly refered to Maureen Budway as the featured artist for that date.  In fact, Maureen performed at Savoy this past week on November 5, 2012.  As correctly stated in the body of the post, the featured artist for November 12th is the wonderful songstress, JUDI FIGEL.  Please note this correction on your calendar and come join us at Savoy for a great night of music…

In the meantime, please join us on November 5^th for the fantastic jazz vocals of Maureen Budway.  And please be aware that, due to the end of daylight savings time, Maureen and the band…

My Interests

I am a fifty-eight year old lady. I am a mother of five and I have eight grandchildren. Through my lifetime I have tried my hand at book publishing and screenplay writing, but I find myself enjoying my new hobby now that the kids are grown of making videos to show work that I have done and extend my obsession with photography in video form.

I first started with a youtube channel under Dorisanne13. On top of doing short commercial videos about my screenplays I have…
