Velvet Emotions is a tasteful and exciting
blend of the smooth vocals and upbeat arrangements
that define the popular duo of Roberts and Bonanno.
Each and every song on this album was a million plus
hit, and Kelly and Jim, along with their backup band
Platinum Revue, deliver these favorites in a style of
their own. This powerhouse duo has been compared
to Martin and Lewis, Sinatra, and Tormé. Kelly and
im have been on this merry-go-round music ride
for over seventy years collectively, performing from
coast to coast. They have that special bond on and
off stage - each one funnier than the next.
They add an extra special touch to each song
they sing. Watching them on stage is mindful of
Martin and Lewis and the Rat Pack all rolled into
one.
Kelly Roberts' warm, embracing tone and his
melodic scats will have your toes tapping. J
im Bonanno's powerful voice will melt your heart.
The members of Platinum Revue: Pat Geschwind on
guitar, Aleck Brinkman on bass, and
John Francione on drums, lay down all the groove
that makes for a guaranteed great listening experience.
Peter Tassey adds his excellent trombone on
many of the tunes on this release. Also an
accomplished jazz vocalist, Peter is a well known
entertainer throughout the United States and Europe.
Jerry Brongo brings his extensive talents on
keyboards and strings to this project.
An accomplished arranger and composer,
Jerry's been performing and creating for many years
as a member of several club bands and in his own
studio, Night Rhythm Productions.
A Very Special Thanks goes to Chuck Ryan,
Executive Producer, and Karon Randal Rockwell,
Manager for the Platinum Revue, for making this
entire project possible. Without them,
Velvet Emotions would be but a dream.
