Two time Blues Music Award winner, (“Instrumentalist – Horn”), Deanna Bogart brings her inventive band to Kew Gardens on Saturday July 25th.

In addition to recognition on tenor sax, Deanna has received considerable acclaim as an electrifying piano player, band leader, and highly energetic and engaging performer. Her sound has always encompassed a variety of genres, primarily Blues and Jazz, and is constantly evolving as evidenced by the latest release 11th Hour.

The broad based 11th Hour is a natural extension of the direction taken with the previous release Real Time. The sound continues to revolve around Deanna’s vocals and keys but the band is allowed to stretch out like never before. This free blowing collective uses every opportunity to show their musical chops – particularly on the 4 instrumentals contained in the set. And, in a show of diversity, check out the cool R&B groove of “Love and Attention”. A long time staple of the band’s live shows, the number is delivered in a duet with Deanna and frequent musical partner Tommy Castro who guests on the disc.

The Deanna Bogart Band typically starts their show at an energy level that most bands end with. Buckle up; Deanna Bogart’s in town to rock the house!
