Description

Deborah Silver is a Mississippi-born, two-time #1 Billboard chart-topping vocalist who just released her brand new highly anticipated album "Basie Rocks!" which is a collaboration with the legendary Count Basie Orchestra on their 90th Anniversary, produced by Grammy-winning producer and Rolling Stones drummer Steve Jordan. Known for her soulful but polished readings of classic jazz and pop melodies, Deborah initially garnered attention with her 2014 debut, "Pure Silver" before topping the Traditional Jazz Albums chart with 2016's "The Gold Standards." Renowned for her dynamic interpretations of music across genres, Deborah has captured the hearts of listeners and critics alike; legendary producer Quincy Jones praised her saying, “Her strong and sultry vocals are seductive and soul-soothing. Whatever she sings, she owns—making every note matter! One listen, and it’s clear: Deborah Silver is the real deal.” Rex Reed of the New York Observer raves, "When Deborah Silver takes over a mike, she doesn’t just visit the stage, she owns it! Trust me. She’s a thrill, a swinging show-biz whirlwind...and a bargain at any price!" Silver has recorded a string of hit duets with acclaimed vocalists including Jack Jones, Diane Schuur, Steve Tyrell, Bill Medley of the Righteous Brothers, Trombone Shorty, Ronnie Millsap, Freddy Cole, Kurt Elling, Ann Hampton Callaway, Pam Tillis, Ray Benson and Asleep At The Wheel, and more, and her upcoming releases include duets with superstars Tony Orlando, Ronnie Millsap, Pam Tillis, Steve Tyrell and Jazz icon Diane Schuur.
