The Satin Doll Trio is an elegant ensemble renowned for their excellence in the intimate "supper club jazz" style that was popularized during the early 1950's by artists such as Julie London, Sarah Vaughan, and Peggy Lee. Like the guitar-bass-voice trios that came before them, the Satin Doll Trio has learned from the best and taken the art form to new levels. Their musical interests are firmly rooted classic American jazz songs of the period. They have appeared on the stages of The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, The Corcoran Gallery's Armand Hammer Auditorium, and have made television appearances on the BET Jazz programs "Jazz Central" and "Impressions". Since forming the group in 1997 they have remained consummate performers making more than two hundred appearances annually at prestigious venues throughout the Washington D.C. area and Eastern United States. The group has received exceptional reviews from the Washington Post, the Washington Times, and from JazzReview.com.

Three proves a charm on the Satin Doll Trio's "I'm Glad There Is You," a CD inspired by the coziest recordings made by Sarah Vaughan, Peggy Lee, Julie London and Ella Fitzgerald. This Washington-based jazz ensemble likes to keep things simple: just voice, guitar and bass, along with a thoroughly seductive blend of classic pop and jazz tunes. The vocals are unruffled, the arrangements are uncluttered, and the songs are uncommonly good.  Singer Patrice Ferris doesn't have the distinctive voice that her role models possessed in their prime  who does?  but she always places her considerable talent at the service of the song, making the words count and moods linger. In fact, it's hard to imagine any lyricist frowning on her interpretations, since there's not even a hint of self-infatuation or gratuitous embellishment here. Instead, Ferris lets these romantic refrains and delightful melodies take hold. As a result, her often dreamy, always engaging recitals are hard to resist, whether the lyric is playful ("Just Squeeze Me"), ruminative ("They Say It's Spring") or unapologetically bitter ("Cry Me a River"). Of course, it helps that Ferris is accompanied by two like-minded musicians  guitarist Ken Kilpatrick and bassist Fred Ferris. Together, they weave a series of subdued and seamless arrangements that never fail to flatter the singer and the song. ~ Mike Joyce   http://www.satindolltrio.com/reviews.htm
