“Jazz, swing and blues, in the classic style of Dinah Washington and Etta James.” —Phil Elwood, San Francisco Examiner
Pamela Rose, a San Franciscan jazz and blues singer and songwriter, teamed up with pianist Nate Ginsberg for this second CD “Every Time I’m With You.” This second outing won much praise for it’s smooth beauty and well-written arrangements and originals.
“Her improvisations and her interaction with the band, especially with pianist Ginsberg, were outstanding, and her blues swings hard!” —Jazz Now Magazine
“Pamela Rose is really refreshing in a time when too many singers think they’re ‘doing’ jazz by scatting all over the map and vying to see how out of tune they can get. Not that Pamela doesn’t take liberties with a melody; she does, but always with some aesthetic purpose in mind...clever originals, thoughtful and always effective.” —Robert Tate, San Jose Mercury News
