Multi-talented singer/songwriter DeeAnn has received numerous well-deserved accolades in her hometown of Buffalo, New York’s 10th Annual “JazzBuffalo” musical greats poll. She was awarded “Jazz Female Vocalist of the Year”, receiving the most votes for her still-popular 2023 album “It’s My Time”, and was chosen runner-up for “Most Memorable Performance” and the “John Hunt Jazz Artist of the Year” Award. Her new single “Simply Beautiful,” was been released, which is a sensual, deep soul bluesy twist on an early 70’s Al Green song from his landmark #1 Billboard album “I’m Still in Love with You”. She collaborated with her new producer Ted Perlman, on this song and the upcoming new album featuring both originals and re-imaginings of classic songs from various eras.
Working with Perlman puts DeeAnn in the classic company of the multi-genre greats he has produced, arranged, recorded, and toured with over the past five decades - including Burt Bacharach, Whitney Houston, Manhattan Transfer, Harry Belafonte, Bob Dylan, Ronald Isley, Jermaine Jackson, Edwin Hawkins, CeCe Winans, Brian Wilson, Dr. Dre, Diana Ross, Ringo Starr, Joe Cocker, Chicago and Young MC.
