LOS ANGELES: MARY BOGUE'S "SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY."

Jazz vocalist Mary Bogue brings her show "Sentimental Journey" to THE GARDENIA (7066 Santa Monica Boulevard, West Hollywood, CA - 323-467-7444) on Saturday, April 19th at 9:00 pm. Supporting Ms. Bogue for this show are Ron Snyder on piano and David Fortin on bass and trumpet. In 2012 she released her debut CD, Don't Go To Strangers. Mary Bogue's first memory of music traces back to her family's upstate New York home, sitting on the floor over the record player with her favorite 78 LP, "The Naughty Lady Of Shady Lane." Later, while her new California neighbor kids listened to surf music, Bogue's next milestone was courtesy of Dave Brubeck's "Take Five." Then Cozy Cole on "Topsy Part Two" which took her on a journey of no return. As a pre-teen, for Mary it was all about this stuff called jazz, R&B and Motown. And while Paul McCartney was okay in her books, he didn't compare to Smokey Robinson. Call for cover/minimum information.
