Elaine Dame sings – and people stop and listen. The woman Time Out Chicago calls “a jazz dynamo” and “a gem in the city’s vocal jazz scene” has been turning heads at venerable jazz venues from coast to coast. From her appearances at the world-famous Rainbow Room and 54 Below in New York City to her performances at the 2015 and 2017 Chicago Jazz Festival to headlining Herb Alpert’s Vibrato Jazz Grill in LA, Elaine brings her virtuosic interpretations to vintage vocal classics and modern standards alike. It's no wonder the Chicago Reader wrote, "Dame has a winning stage presence and a chameleon-like vocal flexibilty."
"Dame has risen to the top ranks of Chicago jazz singers. She possesses all the musicality you could want in a true jazz vocalist: centered intonation, an enviable command of rhythm and a translucent but powerful instrument.” - Neil Tesser, Author, Playboy Guide to Jazz and Grammy-winning jazz critic.
