Featured Singer Night w/ Marty and Elayne.

Featured Singers @ the Dresden

Tonight was another wonderful Featured Singer Night.  Brittany and Andrew sounded lovely.  Bill was on Bass.  Gordon stopped by with his trumpet and sat in with us.  We even got John up at the end of the night to sing a couple songs.  It was a busy night.  But, it was a fun one!

So that you might swing

Los Angeles Times (portion of the David A Keeps story from 2004)  - "Marty and Elayne Roberts have given up their weekend evenings so that yours might swing. They are, of course, the beloved lounge duo at the Dresden in Los Feliz. It's a gig that has brought them a quirky renown, playing vermouth-dry versions of disco classics and romantic standards, jamming with celebrities from Flea to David Lynch to Julia Roberts. And, perhaps most famously, appearing in the movie "Swingers." Although their work is about helping other people enjoy the weekend, theirs is kicked back in a Rat Pack kind of way."

SWING TIME MAGAZINE - - - "Marty and Elayne are Jazz musicians first.  They survived the turning of the trends, remained preferred favorites in Los Angeles, and, are the jewel in the crown of the Hollywood entertainment circuit.

LOUNGE - - - Catch the grooving, world famous Marty and Elayne.

DETOUR - - -  There is certainly something bewitching about the rapport Marty and Elayne (Accomplished jazz musicians, composers and recording artists) have with their public.

VOGUE - - - Marty and Elayne are refreshing real.

Lovely guests...

Jane of Dick and Jane Family Orchestra sang with Marty and Elayne this evening.  She (Jane) sounded amazing as always.  Yes, I sang a couple songs too.  As did the always lovely Adrian.  I've been around the Dresden and Marty and Elayne long enough to know they go above and beyond to support singers in Hollywood.  It was, yet, another lovely night at the Dresden because of their in-tune-ness.  They're simply entertaining...
