Laura Hubert Band:December 1
Laura Hubert Band: Saturday, December 1. 8:30pm. $10 at the door. With Opener Andria Simone. As the co-founder and lead vocalist of the Leslie Spit Treeo, Laura Hubert turned to new (or old) avenues to continue to express her vocal gifts when they parted. She reconnected with pianist Peter Hill, and The Laura Hubert Band was born. Laura’s not a jazz diva, nor a straight blues artist, nor just a pop or country singer. She’s a bit of all these, but Laura thinks of herself as a singer of “old songs.” That term perfectly describes the eclectic repertoire of standards, blues, and western swing that she delivers with such passion and style. Laura is revelling in the opportunity to reinterpret classics by some of the singers she most admires, from the classic blues of Bessie Smith to the full-throated ballads of Dinah Washington. And those old songs have never sounded better. http://www.laurahubert.com http://www.andriasimone.com A Richard Flohil /Tom Dertinger co-presentation with The Pearl Co.
