A onetime pop/rocker and country singer who is currently one of Buffalo's premiere award winning jazz and blues vocalists, the multi-talented DeeAnn is a highly respected songwriter - yet she's in an empowering, ultra-creative new phase of her career collaborating on fresh and inviting re-imaginings of classic pop/R&B songs with legendary producer Ted Perlman (Bob Dylan, Whitney Houston, Dr. Dre, Diana Ross). Her sultry, slow simmering re-imagining of Al Green's "Simply Beautiful" (from his landmark #1 Billboard album I'M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU) is a mesmerizing showcase for her vocal dynamics. It brings passionate bluesy and jazzy magic to a relatively obscure but truly magnificent early 70s gem about being good to someone if you expect them to treat you right in return.
