Rose Mallet
Tuesdays, 6:30 to 9:30
Rose Mallett was declared a “Living Jazz Legend” in 2016 by the Living Jazz Foundation at Los Angeles City Hall. Discovered in her teens by R&B duo Sam and Dave, Rose later sang at Motown Los Angeles for producer, Hal Davis. Rose sang in Miramax movie Guinevere and performed the soundtrack, “I Never Think of You” in the New Line Cinema film, Now and Then and performs her unique jazz/blues style throughout the country.
Rose has captured the essence of vocal delivery that some say remind them of the range and texture of Sarah Vaughan; the playful joy of Ella Fitzgerald; the foreboding pain of Billie Holiday; and the regal articulation of Lena Horne. Her voice is simply beautiful.
Rat Pack Wednesdays
Wednesdays, 6:30 to 9:30
