Satin Doll Trio Salutes the Music of Julie London at the Metropolitan Room

Washington DC, DC, October 03, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Washington DC's popular Satin Doll Trio presents an intimate musical tribute to America's most beloved torch singer Ms. Julie London at the Metropolitan Room in New York City on Sunday, November 3rd at 9:30pm. The program is focused on the early minimalist London recordings whose music popularized great American Standards such as "Cry Me a River," "Hey Daddy," and "I'm in the Mood for Love." The program not only recreates this wonderful music, but also shares intimate stories about Julie London's life gathered over the years from Julie's friends and family members.

London recorded 32 albums in a career that began in 1955 with a live performance at the 881 Club in Los Angeles. Billboard named her the most popular female vocalist for 1955, 1956, and 1957. She was the subject of a 1957 Life cover article in which she was quoted as saying, "It's only a thimbleful of a voice, and I have to use it close to the microphone. But it is a kind of oversmoked voice, and it automatically sounds intimate."
