I began performing classic jazz in June 2007, and I've never looked back. While I've developed a unique sound, I thank so many classic singers for their influence and inspiration, including: Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan, Dinah Washington, Peggy Lee and Nancy Sinatra.
Currently, I'm singing around Toronto (mostly) Catch me singing jazz at the Drake Hotel every Friday*.
*except on occasion....Also, I am lead singer of Whale Tooth, a Toronto-based pop/rock band......check it out: http://www.myspace.com/whaletooth ....
Just stopping by to comment on your impeccable vocals. Loved your covers of great classics: "Paper Moon", "Ain't Misbehavin'", and "Someone to Watch Over Me". I first found you on Rayburn's page, and was immediately taken by what I heard. Keep up the great work, and please stay in touch.
Hi Elise, I'd be into doing some playing in the winter, if you are around then. Maybe something sparse like a trio or even a duo? Back from tour in December, drop me a line if that sounds appealing! :)
This is sort of irrelevant to music matters but still very important.
I recently submitted a video to a contest with the purpose to prevent drunk driving and the winner will win a college scholarship so please watch and vote if you like my video here:

when i wished for you i was not mature. a blemished truth can still be a cure. now we drift apart, we cannot endure. times a gift that will not be lured.
we made it up to describe our days. it helps clear up some of this hazey maze, called life. god is one and is here and there from the beginning. none of our laws affect the origining.
Thanks for being our friend Elise! Again, I really like your music. Lemme know if there's any other gigs comin up, unfortunately I can't make this one. Cheers, keep smilin, -Brandon Robins
