About this Event
Donna Byrne is a jazz singer at the top of her game. With sultry good looks and a quick wit, Donna is not only a masterful singer, but also a true entertainer. Her powerful voice, energetic personality, and life experiences give her music an almost spiritual feel, a soft and subtle charge that has brought admirations from jazz fans and the top artists in the industry.
She has opened for such performers as Lou Rawls, Bob Newhart and was invited by the great Tony Bennett to open for him on his national tour (the “thrill of a lifetime” for Donna). Her unforgettable performances have entertained audiences from LA to London, wowing audiences at such venues as: Blue Note Jazz Club, Tavern on the Green, Blues Alley, Scullers, Regattabar, Jazz Bakery, The Rainbow Room, and London’s Pizza on the Park.
She’s also toured Florida, performing with Herb Pomeroy, Dave McKenna and Ruby Braff. Her audiences have been filled with such luminaries as the legendary Margaret Whiting, who “thoroughly enjoyed Donna's performance,” and Tony Bennett, who dropped in for his birthday just to hear Donna sing his classic “It Was Me.” Bennett became an ardent fan, once flying home early from the Super Bowl just to catch Donna perform.
“Peoples! Heads up! Pay attention!” wrote Cadence Magazine. “This is one fine Jazz Vocalist!!”
