Jennifer Grimm Sings Judy Garland
Crooners Lounge & Supper Club, 6161 Highway 65 NE, Minneapolis, MN
‘Jennifer Grimm Sings Judy Garland’ is an energetic and exciting concert celebrating the music and showmanship of Judy Garland. Join Jennifer and her 11-piece band including 7 horns as she sweetly sails through Judy Garland classics such as ‘You Made Me Love You,’ ‘Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart,’ and of course ‘Over the Rainbow.’
Jennifer Grimm voice Kevin Rowe bass Greg Schutte drums Dan Chouinard piano Kyle Tennis guitar Todd Matheson trumpet Gus Lindquist trumpet Dave Graf trombone Larry McCabe trombone John Croarkin baritone sax/flute Scott Johnson alto sax Kenni Holmen tenor sax
Both Grimm and Garland were born in Minnesota to vaudeville families, bringing command and charisma to the stage as only lifelong entertainers can. Although they were born over a half-a-century apart, the sentimental sounds of the Judy Garland era seem to be a perfect fit for Grimm’s well-known versatility and ability to bring powerful vocals to the showstopping numbers as well as an intimate tenderness to Garland’s ballads that will leave a lump in your throat.
Come Hear the Music, Feel the Joy, and Experience ‘Jennifer Grimm Sings Judy Garland.’
“This is way beyond the rainbow with a stellar cast of area musicians. If all you know about Judy is the Wizard of Oz, you need to see this show.” – Andrea Canter
