Jaci Davis in Can't Help Singing - a tribute to the music of Jerome Kern
Jaci Davis is a well-known local vocalist, music director, piano and voice teacher who holds both her Bachelors and Masters Degrees in Music. She plays and sings regularly at several local churches and clubs throughout the valley. Her show last season, Live! Laugh! Love, was nearly sold-out and received a standing ovation. For Cant Help Singing, Ms. Davis pays tribute to legendary music composer Jerome Kern, and many of his songs that are now considered Standards in The Great American Songbook from Broadway and Hollywood musicals including; All The Things You Are, Dearly Beloved, A Fine Romance, Im Old Fashioned, The Last Time I Saw Paris, Long Ago And Far Way, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, The Way You Look Tonight, and the timeless classic musical, Show Boat, whose story line was considered highly controversial in 1927. Kerns worked with great lyricists like Dorothy Fields, Ira Gershwin, Johnny Mercer, and Oscar Hammerstein, with songs recorded by countless singers to this day. For Ms. Davis show, Cant Help Singing, the music will be provided by Bill Siatta on bass, Doug MacDonald on acoustic guitar, and on piano will be Jacis musical director Derrik Lewis. A few of Derriks credits include many Hollywood films, and a series regular on Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea. Locally he has had leading roles in Gigi, Peter Pan, La Cage Aux Folles, and Zanadu at Palm Canyon Theatre. He produced the long-running Musical Chairs, and currently performs with his trio every Tuesday and Thursday in the Coral Seas Lounge at Tropical in Palm Springs, and is the lead in the Hi-Desert Playhouse production of Dracula, which runs through October 31st.
