All the cool music of

“Organic, eclectic…spontaneous!
Jazz singer Judy Chamberlain solidly
affirms the music’s far-reaching,
continuing vitality.”
Don Heckman, Los Angeles Times

“Judy Chamberlain is a singer who’s
always a pleasure to hear. In part,
because her astonishing repertoire
makes every performance a
fascinating journey through a
century of song. But even more
so because she brings such care,
authenticity and musicality to
everything she touches.”
The International Review of Music


Judy’s Wedding & Event Journal

Sinatra Rat Pack Wedding Singer

Someone I know once hired a “Sinatra Singer” to perform “live music” at his event.
“The guy was terrible,” he said.
Evidently, the fellow was singing with tracks.
Live music is a funny thing. It’s supposed to be LIVE.
Which totally does not mean having a pre-recorded music bed playing while the so-called “band” is playing along with it. Some of these pre-recorded tracks include vocal enhancement, as well — and the “voices” onstage sing right over them.!
Not everybody knows the difference, either.
But live music is not supposed to be karaoke - or semi-karaoke.
As for impersonators — why substitute hamburger for caviar?
I hate to say it, but the “Sinatra singers” are NOT Sinatra.
Part of the charm of the Rat Pack was their ability to pull off spontaneity, even though many of their best bits of “shtick” were actually well-rehearsed.
Their easygoing repartee was not a copy of anyone or anything else.
There is not going to be another Rat Pack, ever.
And there is not going to be another Sinatra, either.
Do we “do” Sinatra?
Do we “do” Ella and Louis?
Hell, no.
We do the songs they did.

Judy Chamberlain can be reached at 714 774-1696.
