She has a voice seasoned with sensitivity and experience and, whether singing a sentimental ballad or putting the "S" in swing, whether in a small club or large auditorium, you feel as though she were singing to you alone. Her phrasing, timing and endearing ability to connect with her audience has garnered a loyal fan base; with each performance she wins new fans. Candice is as comfortable singing in an intimate setting with only piano accompaniment as she is performing with a trio or larger ensemble. Her repertoire includes popular standards from the American Songbook as well as unfamiliar gems and novelty tunes and her warm, natural delivery captivates even the casual listener.
Tonight's trio features:
Chuck Bennett,
Curt Moore
Denny Berthiaume
DENNY BERTHIAUME,
piano, grew up outside Washington D.C. and Chicago. He is the only non-California native in the group although San Francisco is his home. He has performed with Bobby McFerrin, Diane Schuur, Joe Williams, Ed Thigpen, Stan Getz, k.d.lang, and Joan Rivers. He recorded 4 albums as co-leader of the successful fusion group Solar Plexus. He has appeared at jazz festivals in Monterey, the Russian River, San Jose, and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. He was professor in literature and music at Foothill College in Los Altos, California (1970-2004) and a published playwright.
