A Jazzy Christmas!

A Jazzy Christmas Cast Photo 2010

It is only the 2nd week of December and so much has already been accomplished!  The biggest news is that my vocal trio, Dangerous Curves produced the Christmas show for the Flamingo LibraryTheatre, “A Jazzy Christmas” and it was an absolute success! We had special guest stars, we had surprise guests, we had a gorgeous set, we sang the Hallelujah chorus!  Yes! Its true! Three girls in Las Vegas sang the Hallelujah chorus and rocked the house!  

We were so very fortunate to have the Swing City Dolls as one of our guests.  They are 3, absolutely adorable girls who do the “vintage” thing in a contemporary way.  They sang “Hitch A Ride With Santa” and then we did a fantastic “Santa Medley” featuring each Doll on a favorite song-of-the-season with the Curves on back ups.  

We also had the pleasure of having the  popular jazz quartet,Fifth Ave sing their amazing versions of Jolly Old Saint Nicholas and Carol of the Bells/My Favorite Things.  If you have never heard these men sing, PUT IT ON THE TOP OF YOUR  LIST! Their arrangements (Rob Hyatt) are truly magical and the Curves counted ourselves as lucky that they were available to share the stage with us.

Probably, the best moments for me were sharing the stage with our husbands! Yes, its true, all our husbands are awesome singers and truly brought the house down! Michael (Gret’s hubby) sang  “Rudy” a jazzy version of “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” with all of us on back up duty, Ron (Lisa’s hubby) sang “You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch” and my hubby sang “O Holy Night” with all of us on back up as well.  The audience couldn’t get enough of our boys and we just loved it!

We made appearances this month at Sam’s Town and Nellis Airforce Base and several private parties and now, its time for a bit of a Christmas break. 

 All the Curves have lots going on with their solo gigs and family events and of course, our annual Curvy Christmas dinner together!  Mmmm, can't wait for delicious wine and food served up by one of our fave, gluten free place, Maggiannos.

Octoberfest of Music for the Curves!

It was an amazing month of music with the Curvy girls of Dangerous Curves! We sang our curvy tushes off!  

Our first jaunt of the month was all the way in China Lake for the ladies of WACOM, an wonderful organization that raises money for those in need in their area. We had to meet up at 5am (thank you Starbucks!) to be on the road to make it in time for our sound check and show.  It was a total blast, with Lisa’s Dad, Wayne Rogers taking good care of our sound and getting us safely there and back.  Thanks, Wayne!

Next we had a gig at the Flamingo for the ladies of JAG.  What a sweet group of ladies!  We had a blast and they even shared their coffee with us after the show.  

We were invited to perform at the PASNV 20th Anniversary show at one of our favorite venues, the Flamingo LIbrary Theatre.  There were lots of great performers there who had performed through the years and it was wonderful to chat with everyone.  Lots of great musical memories! :-)

Maybe the most exciting for us was the debut of an acoustic version of our show.  We were proud to be a part of the Green Girl Arts and Jazz Festival this year.  Green Girl empowers and celebrates female artists from spoken word to artist to musician.  They also are dedicated to highlighting awareness to the carbon footprint and supporting The Shade Tree Shelter for women and children in need.  Tony Bronco, our MD and all around fabulous pianist and person, played for us and it was totally dreamy!  We were at The Resort at Mt. Charleston, surrounded by mountains and trees and creatures and singing our show in an MTV unplugged style and it was pure bliss!  We felt so open and free and creative and we are ready to do it again!  

Now, its Christmas time for the Curves as we prepare for our show  on December 5th at the Flamingo Library Theatre.  We are writing, producing and performing, and we even have some special guests planned.  When all is confirmed, we'll let you know!

"Girl Talk" at the Starbright Theater

We were working hard for you this weekend at the lovely Starbright Theatre in Las Vegas.  We performed our hit show, "Girl Talk" which features the songs of some of the great female singers of all time, Broadway old and new, our take on the great standards  and even a few surprises!  We had 2 special guest artists with us-the gorgeous and talented Ray Jon who accompanied us on acoustic guitar as we sang one of our new songs, "Hold On" and we sang a 6 part acapella "God Bless America" with 5th Ave a superb vocal jazz group.   

As you can see from the above picture, we had a fantastic band as well!  Our MD and pianist, Tony Bronco, Jeff Davis on bass and Gary Olds holding the beat.  This was a full production 90 minute show with costume changes, wonderful lighting and sound (thanks to Jim and Dale!) and a whole lot fun!  A big, huge thanks to our families and friends, for ALL the help you gave us this weekend and all the love we get from you everyday!

Menopause the Musical, Dangerous Curves and more!

It was our distinct pleasure to perform as the spotlight guest on Thursday afternoon with some of the ladies from Menopause The Musical (currently playing at the Luxor Hotel) at the lovely Suncoast Hotel and Casino.  The Curves love performing there as the audience is welcoming and fun and the stage is beautiful.  

There was certainly a lot of chicksingers present as the hostess for the afternoon was Ms. Skye Miles and the featured performers were some of the ladies from her cast of Menopause.  Laura Lee O’Connell, Annette Verdelino and Lori Legacy rounded out the talent filled afternoon.  These girls are not only great singers, but also fabulous actresses and awesome girls and loads of fun backstage.  And, let me tell you, Ms. Skye Miles is one helluva singer and did a wonderful job hosting. 

On Saturday, we had a great rehearsal with one of our special guest stars, 5th Ave.  Rob Hyatt has arranged an absolutely killer version of God Bless America for us and them to perform at our show on Saturday, May 8th.  Yes! It’s 6 parts!!! OMG, people, it is gorgeous.  Rob is like arranger extraordinaire and I am so excited to have him around us!  Not only that, we recorded our CD "Girl Talk" in Rob's studio.  He is a multi-talented man, for sure and we love him!

It's only a few short days until the show at the Starbright, with lots in-between from more rehearsals to a local festival and...well, you'll just have to keep reading to keep up with the Curvy girls!  Check us out at Twitter, and our Facebook page and at  dangerouscurveslasvegas.com 

A Salute to Bill Fayne!

It was great fun last weekend to be a part of honoring and performing in a benefit for a man, not only filled with huge talent, but obviously so beloved by the performing community of Las Vegas and beyond.  Bill Fayne, who is probably best known as Clint Holmes musical director and founding member of the Las Vegas Tenors, had some serious medical issues recently.  You can read more about his story here.

Clint Holmes & Kelly Clinton not only hosted the show, but performed as well, along with the likes of; Terry Fator, Louis Anderson, Rick Faugno (Jersey Boys), Jerry Lopez (Santa Fe & the Fat City Horns), Pete Barbutti, Robin Leach, Lance Burton, Mark Giovi (Bite at Stratosphere), Michelle Johnson, Domenick Allen (former lead singer of Foreigner) and his daughter Cayleigh Capaldi, Susan Anton, Cast members from Menopause the Musical (Skye Dee Miles, Sandra Benton, Vida Corimbi), Lena Prima, Voce Vegas, Frankie Scinta, Las Vegas Tenors, Tina Walsh (Phantom – The Las Vegas Spectacular), Gayle Steele, Vinnie Falcone, and so many more! It was absolutely crazy to be surrounded by THE talent of Las Vegas! Dangerous Curves, my sister, Lori and Michelle sang back up for the one and only Mark Giovi.  The song was called “Young Angels” and was written by Mark and Bob Grimes.  It kinda felt like we were in a rock concert!  We also joined in the finale and the audience was absolutely thrilled!  

Our next focus is on our next big show, May 8th at the Starbright Theatre.  Many of our most requested songs with a few new ones and maybe even a special guest star!  Hope to see you there! Check us out on Twitter and Facebook!

The Curves at the Four Seasons

Hello Curvy Friends! We had a great time this week with the ladies of Towne Club at their monthly lunch meeting at the Four Seasons.

This picture was taken in the foyer of the Seasons and the flowers smelled absolutely amazing. From the valet who greeted us and helped us to the ballroom with our things to Lauren (group sales) to Dan (head sound engineer) Max (our fave bellman) the service and atmosphere at the Seasons is impeccable and we look forward to someday being a guest of this lovely hotel. Sooner than later. Please!!!

Anyway, back to the fun of the day, which was of course, performing our show, "Girl Talk" for a room full of women! Lots of pretty outfits and hats and shoes in that room, for sure! We had a great time and our "Sentimental Journey" set, "Judy Garland Medley" and "Moon River" were beautifully received. We work hard at designing shows for each client that is particular to their needs and its clear that we really hit the mark on Tuesday by the amount of hugs received after the show! How lucky are we to be able to sing gorgeous songs, in the middle of the day, at the Four Seasons?! Life is great and we are a grateful trio of Curvy chicksingers...
