“I don’t care to what station you’re tuned
Motown, Soul, Rock & Roll; Nat King Cole makes me swoon
If it makes you feel good, makes you feel fine
That’s all that matters; that’s the bottom line”
The above lyrics are from Deanna Bogart’s signature tune “OK, I’ll Play The Blues”, and serve to define her music that effectively combines Blues, Boogie, Funk, Jazz, and just flat out rocks!
Playing more keyboard than the law allows, Deanna achieves her long standing goal “to create a fusion of all these different musical styles with Blues and Boogie genuinely at the core” in her performances each and every night! Anyone who has witnessed a Deanna Bogart Band performance will certainly attest to that fact.
Calling on her musical experiences of Western Swing, Blues, and R&B, coupled with her diverse influences, (including Jay McShann and Ella Fitzgerald), Bogart and her inventive band never stop pushing the envelope. Her sound is constantly evolving as evidenced by the breadth of music found on her eight releases to date that not only display her mastery of the keyboard, but also highlight her eloquent phrasing on tenor sax.
A three time Blues Music Award winner, (“Instrumentalist Horn”), Deanna has received considerable acclaim as an electrifying piano player, band leader, and highly energetic and engaging performer.
A Deanna Bogart show is not to be missed!
