Pamela Rose is an outstanding blues vocalist and songwriter. She has been performing along the West Coast and in Northern Europe for many years. Her rich, mellifluous vocals, electrifying stage presence and warm relationship with her audience have made her a local favorite with concert promoters and club owners.
Nominated twice for a Bay Area Music Award (Barnmie), she has long been recognized for her ability to reach audiences and pull them out of their seats. Spending the early part of her career as a blues bandleader, Pamela then became a featured vocalist with the well-known Motown revue Zasu Pitts Memorial Orchestra. In recent years, she recorded two jazz and swing records with pianist Nate Ginsberg. These records were received enthusiastically in Europe, and Rose was invited to headline a number of jazz festivals over there. Now, Pamela is returning to her blues roots, with her powerful new band, the Blue Five.
