Bay area jazz vocalist Laurel Cole breathes new life into the wonderful songs of the 30's and 40's and 50's with a warm, rich alto that restores those classic melodies and lyrics to their original style so often lost in many of today's interpretations.  Ever since making her San Francisco television debut at the tender age of four, she has delivered the musical message of Gershwin, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Rodgers & Hart, Ellington, Hoagy Carmichael and other greats of that era, with emotion and sincerity.
