Live Performances: The Satin Doll Trio +


In addition to their nightclub and concert performances the Satin Doll Trio + performs for events including private receptions, corporate events, or intimate in-home parties. The group can be configured to meet individual event requirements by performing as an intimate trio, or by expanding to a larger quartet or quintet. Their repertoire focuses on music drawn from the Great American era of song in genres that include Jazz, Swing, Latin, Big Band, and Ballroom. The Satin Doll Trio + always performs at a volume where casual conversation can be enjoyed while creating a warm and refined ambience that is enjoyable for dancing or just listening.



The Trio: The Satin Doll Trio, consisting of Ken Kilpatrick on guitar, Fred Ferris on bass, and vocalist Patrice Ferris, is perfectly suited for cozy settings or smaller events. This configuration focuses on music performed in the intimate and romantic "supper club" jazz style and includes many jazz standards and romantic ballads.


The Quintet: For larger events, or where dancing is desired, the trio expands to the Satin Doll Trio +, a swinging Quintet, that includes drums and saxophone. In this configuration the repertoire is also expanded to include a full compliment of music in the Jazz, Swing, Latin, and Ballroom genres. The quintet includes percussionist Tim Jarvis, and one of the areas finest horn players, such as Lyle Link, Don Lerman, or Darryl Kennedy. A quartet configuration consisting of guitar, bass, vocalist, and drums can also be provided.
