CATHERINE RUSSELL AT THE STANLEY MONDAY, JULY 7 AT 8 PM!!

Catherine (or "Cat") Russell is going to appear in Utica at the recently renovated Stanley Theatre for Utica Monday Night at 8 PM on July 7. This is a must-see performance. Cat is the daughter of the legendary Luis Russell, who worked with King Oliver, Red Allen, and Louis Armstrong, to name but a few. Cat's new album "Sentimental Streak" features her delightful interpretations of many jazz standards, with appropriate accompaniment. As part of Utica Monday Night, this performance is free and open to the public. Listen to Cat's interview with Terry Gross HERE. And here's her excellent rendition of Bessie Smith's "Kitchen Man":
