*Bop Stop        Wednesday    13th September 2017             7-9.30pm*



*Carol Leslie, jazz vocalist*, is NE Ohio’s Scottish import from *Edinburgh,
Scotland*. Her media introduction came when chosen out of 2,500
auditionees, she represented Scotland in the British ITV live talent
show, *“Rising
Stars,”* broadcast across Europe and the UK. Her introduction to BBC Radio
on *“Debut,”* was met with acclaim, propelling her to perform in cabaret
venues in the UK. For several years, she enjoyed a myriad of *extra* roles
on British SOAPs! Since then, she has also performed in Australia, Norway,
Bermuda and the USA, including an on-air interview with Cleveland’s own,
Dee Perry of WCPN.



After taking a hiatus from music, she is now back, better than ever, with a
new repertoire to pay homage to the music greats: Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah
Vaughan, Cleo Laine, fellow Scots Annie Ross and Annie Lennox, Diane
Schuur, Diana Krall, Lennon & McCartney, Harry Connick Jr, Ray Charles,
Antonio Carlos Jobim, Mel Tormé, Roberta Flack and Layla Hathaway. Carol
has performed throughout Cleveland at conventions, black tie events, and
the jazz restaurant circuit, where she worked with exceptional musicians:
Neal Creque, Mike Petrone, Cliff Habian, Dan Maier, Leo Coach, Dewey
Jeffreys, Brad Bolton, Roy King, Aidan Plank, Skeets Ross, Gary Aprile, the
Nuff Rey Orchestra, and Rich Endress Little Big Band. For *this* debut at *Bop
Stop*, she is performing with international/local jazz pianist, composer
and educator, *Drene Ivy*, with educator, stellar jazz bassist, *Glenn
Holmes*, (both on faculty at the Music Settlement), and the hip rhythm lady
herself, *Sunny Tabler*, on drums – *Wednesday, September 13, 2017, 7pm*.



>From a musical family, Carol was raised to appreciate, and be influenced
by, the musical contributions of Judy Garland, Sammy Davis Jr, Peggy Lee,
Billie Holliday, Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Nina Simone, Tony
Bennett, Frank Sinatra and Lena Horne. Each has fueled Carol’s love of the
American Song Book!
