our nite with Denise Perrier was most enjoyable and entertaining. If you like the sassy songs of Bessie and sexy serenades of Dinah, then you will be asking for more of the wonderful songs to be sung. If you can, take BART, Powell exit. One small L shape walk to Hotel Nikko. Exit Powell, pass by SF visitor center,up stairs, turn left on Eddy, turn right on Mason,one & 1/4 block to entrance of hotel. Second floor The Rrazz Room. We were running late, so we decided to eat at the Rrazz Room. The lite fare that was offered was not that bad. The waiter did advise us to what was the better dishes and why ,which was useful. The price of my 2 drinks & price of Goldstar tickets were the same. Yes, Denise is'nt the young pop star, but she gave, in my opinion, an enjoyable evening. My friends ( over 45 crowd)were happy to attend an nite out for good clean,brought back happy memories show. We're ready for more!

After seeing Denise perform for decades, her performances are always exciting,,new and in the moment, which is what great jazz is all about. Tammy Hall brings it to the highest level. A marvelous evening!

Denise Perrier brought The House OUT!!! Not only were her songs perfect for each performer, but......she gave a history of the songs she performed, that really helped you realize, where the 'scene was struck!'
It was a triumphal interpretation of (3) STARS.......Bessie, Dinah and Denise!
It is great too, having excellent side-dishes available to enjoy, from The Hotel Nikko kitchen. Definitely a 4 Star experience!

More Information About Bessie, Dinah And Me ... Denise Perrier

Quotes & Highlights

  • "Ms Perrier boasts a gorgeous instrument; call it a burnished contralto. When she sustains a tone, it remains unswerving. Yet when she decides to go for a high note, she can leap an octave with ease and vocal strength. She swings freely, improvising intelligently and showing no need to rely on scat. And bless her, you can understand each syllable of the lyrics. When she tackles a dramatic ballad, she interprets lyrics without resorting to melodrama. Knowing Denise's background, that should come as no surprise -- she's an actress and cabaret singer." —JazzTimes
