About Bobbe Shore and First Call:
Bobbe Shore has performed throughout the DC metro area, sharing her passion and love of Jazz, Standards, Swing, and Blues with those who are familiar with the genre, and winning over new audiences with every performance.
One quality which sets Bobbe apart vocally, is the honest and pure emotional
vulnerability she projects into her interpretation of the classic “torch song”.
Yet, in an instant, she can belt out the gutsiest of Blues, turning a phrase that will (for the moment) take you with her, as she disappears into a blues infused, smokey patch of night.
These days, she’ll dance you down the familiar streets of “America‘s Songbook”, while introducing you to a few new paths, on their way to being well-worn, with her original tunes, proving that America’s Songbook is a constantly evolving “work-in-progress”.
Her group, “First Call” features collaborations with the finest of DC’s jazz community including Wade Beach and Bob Boguslaw (piano), Steve Novosel and Victor Dvoskin (bass), Frank Russo and Tony Martucci (drums), and Bruce Swaim and Lyle Link (sax), among others. Together, they incorporate their individual strengths (quality solos, innovative voicings, and a mutual respect) to provide a unique and memorable musical experience which is enjoyed by the jazz initiated, as well as the novice…and one which passes way too quickly, leaving the audience to wonder, “Where did the time go”?!!! Because before the audience has even realized it, “Bobbe Shore and First Call” has taken them on a journey, and has entertained them…right through to “last call”!
