Roberta Donnay and her Prohibition Mob Band swing mightily on this exquisitely arranged, authentic collection of vintage jazz, blues and swing. Bathtub Gin features rare gems from the 1920's and '30s, plus four party-rousing shout-chorus originals that evoke and revive the open spirit where jazz was born.
No matter what type of music Roberta Donnay is performing, she sings with the spontaneity, honesty and the individuality of the best jazz vocalists. A colorful and passionate performer, she is a joy to see in concert and to hear on records.
In her multi-faceted musical career, Donnay has won numerous awards for her work as a singer/songwriter. However, her first musical love has always been jazz. After the critical success of her 2008 album of jazz standards, “What’s Your Story”, produced by NEA Jazz Master Orrin Keepnews, she is now focusing her attention on the music of the Prohibition Era, with her beguiling and entertaining new recording, Bathtub Gin.
