Thanks very much

Chatted with some people over at Kartemquin (the Interreupters movie) and they told me Dee sings the cover of Don't Give On Me in the movie trailer. I would love to get a copy of that song, if possible. Can't seem to find it anywhere and I don't want such a beautiful song to be lost on some hard drive somewhere. Thanks - please email back, I'd really appreciate it.

Best,
Phil

Hi Dee, When you come to Brasil again? I want to see you, your show. KISSES

On Portland Oregon Public Radio, I heard "Spring Things" and am trying to find it online for purchase but am coming up short! Can you help me???

Since I listened to your magnificent cd “Wild Is The Wind”, I’ve deemed you today’s greatest jazz singer, in the best tradition of the greatest of the past – Bessie, Billie, Ella, Sarah…..
And I recently bought a used cd (almost impossible to find) of your previous highly enjoyable “Live at the Hothouse”.
Few days ago I heard you in concert in Milan – Italy and was thrilled with your fantastic singing as well as the playing of your Evolution Ennsemble!
I can't wait for your next record to listen to…. I hope very soon!
Thank you hearthily!

Hello Dee:
You have a lovely voice and perfect phrasing. Wonderful to hear and enjoy.
All the best in your 2012 musical season,

Great music

Dee,
We heard you this summer in Chicago after we met at the Jazz Institute fundraiser. We so enjoyed your performance and would love to bring friends to listen to you. Let us know when you\'re back in Chicago performing.
Best, Ida & Paul

I thank you hearthily for your little gift and happiness during Jazz Onze+ Festival Lausanne (I am the third Driver who met you at leaving the Casino in Lausanne)
Enjoyed the concert and CD. All the best and hope to hear from you in future.

Best regards
(a new fan ??)

Love your music!!! Please notify of upcoming performances in Chicago and surrounding area.

I saw you at the recent Umbria Jazz Festival with your Evolution Ensemble performing songs of Jimi Hendrix.I was impressed by the chamber quintet without reeds nor keys.I was wandering if there will be a release of the concert or a record of the E.E.
Thanks a lot,
Adriano Salerno

I have been witness of excellent performance at Umbria jazz 2011 in Perugia Main Stage.

TKS very much indeed

Hello Dee,

You have a beautiful voice! Looking forward to hearing you sing live, soon!

Best regards,

years ago, when you sang at the Backroom, I used to come to hear you sing. I was a friend of Duke Payne. I have seen you at a couple of venues in Chicago. Lately everytime I find out where you are singing I just missed it. I still love to hear you sing maybe this year, I will make more set.

PUT ME ON YOUR ELIST FOR EVENTS!

Dear Dee,

I listened to your music online, and I enjoyed what I heard, especially "Wild is the Wind."

Dear Dee,
We met in Sardinia, 2010 and we´ll meet in Kerava, Finland in June.

I really love this CD, got it from you last year at Fred's 80th birthday tribute at
the Velvet last year. When ever I can get home I always look forward to hearing you. I got a call from Rasul Saddik last year when you were in Paris and he told me you were blowing up the place. Just keep doing it.

Just Me.

I heard you a number of years ago at a small Chicago club. I was in the company of Alice Um Kope. I would like to buy a copy of your Live at the Hothouse CD. Thanks.

Good day to you !

We are Canadians but were on vacation at the end of July in Paris. We went to your show on July 24th to the Sunset Sunside. We were sitting just in front of you....

Just a little word to let you know we just LOVED your show and all the musicians as well ! What a wonderful night we had ! One we will remember for a very long time. It would be wonderful if you would come to our Jazz Festival in Quebec city one day. It is a "young" jazz Festival but it is growing up fast and people are going to love you guys for sure !

Hoping to have the pleasure tou ear you in a very near future....

Nathalie and Tony.

I would like to know when will you be in chicago again.
You are a great jazz vocalist.

GREAT!

THANK'S A BILLION

WJSTINGLEY

When will she be playing at the Midway Plisance at Uni. of Chicago ? I have caught part of the advertisment on WDCB but did not catch the day and time.

Hey Dee,
Here's flash from the past - "Natural Experience", of which I was a member, along with yourself and a few other people. I am glad to say that I was blessed and graced to both know you and be honored to experience your gifts firsthand. Musically you influenced me to some degree. I thank you.

I, along with Clarence (drummer), have kept up with you over the years and I am very proud of the accomplishments you've achieved and the blessings GOD has given you. Lord willing, I hope to see your next show. May GOD keep and continue to prosper you.

Hello Dee
I saw you at Club BluJazz. You brought joy to my heart. YOU ARE AMAZING!
I told all my friends about the fabulous Dee Alexander. Looking forward to seeing and hearing more of you.

Hello, Dee. It's been a long time since we've talked. Glad to see you're still in the game and doing so well. Say hello sometime.

Dave

Hi Dee
I love your CD ! It was so great to hear you and the quartet last weekend at Blujazz. Your voice and phrasing are tremendous ! I love your versions of " This Bitter Earth " , " Feeling Good ", and " Four Women ". I hope we get to play together sometime ! Thanks again for the music, Juli Wood

Your album Wild is the Wind is excellent.

Wild is the wind and wonderful are the mellifluos sounds that emanate from the dynamic diva Dee Alexander! Kudos to you my dear. I thank God for you and your gifts. I love you to life!

Sharon

Please, Dee, come to Portugal!
You're absolutely amazing!

Hi Dee, I'm a colleague and a fan, and would love to work with you one day. May you always be Blessed.

Are there tickets available for Dee Alexander's Birthday concert on February 7th, 2010?

Happy New Year! I am trying to find out where Ms. Alexander will be around the week end of Feb. 22nd and March 4th. My birthday last year was made incredible by seeing her for the first time at the Velvet Lounge, my cousin took me. I will return to celebrate it again and would love nothing more to see her and am willing to work my vacation around her time if she is going to be in/around the Chicago area. Please let me know. Blessings! Annette

Hey Dee:


We'll be at the Green Mill on 1/4 and look forward to another great evening with you. Thanks for all you bring to the jazz world and to ours.

Bruce and Mitch

HELLO DEE, I HOPE YOU REMEBER US. MY HUSBAND KEITH CAME ACROSS AN AD OF YOURS AND GAVE IT TO ME. IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU STILL DOING YOU. YOU SOUND GREAT.

Hi Dee - I really enjoy your shows, although I keep missing them lately. Hopefully that will be mended soon. We saw you at the velvet lounge at the "Light" Henry Huff birthday tribute and it was one of the most moving nights I've ever lived.Could you please add me to your mailing list, and could you tell me where I could buy a copy of the Evolution Ensemble CD? I think my uncle would really like it, and he doesn't live in Chicago. Thanks!

Dear Dee Alexander:

Thank you so much again for this incredible concert: we had a wonderful
time.

Your voice is particularly beautiful and moreover the way you use it is so
rich and inspiring!
When you sing, our minds leave the ground and travel far what stunned
me is that when you scat, your voice has so many colors and that you draw
real paintings with these colors. Then, when you have brought us so far
away that we have lost even the very notion of song with words, when we
actually don't have the notion that there could be words anymore
-because they have become useless in the wide landscape of your sounds- at
that very moment, clear, warm, supple, generous, so beautiful, your jazz
diva voice gently comes back with the text. When you go back on the theme
like that, it is as if a bird was coming back, or as if you were waking us
up gently.
The use you make of silences is excellent too: they are music. You guys
had a real group sound, the musical flesh was there, united. The bass
player is incredible.

Another thing I admired: when you sing love, not a second you have the
least mannerism, and though you are never gross; I mean you have power
with no brutality whatsoever and you have sensibility and softness with no mannerism or sentimentalism whatsoever, bravo! Always feeling and emotion
without superficiality and pretense. You are true, sincere, generous in
your art and really, it was awesome.

Your voice flows like a shining river, with no apparent effort. You use it
like an instrument.
My piano jazz teacher gave me hints to follow that path. I took piano
jazz lessons to accompany myself when I sing but my teacher does not train
singers. He thinks that to be able to use my voice like an instrument and
improve the variety of my scats, I need to work harder on my piano
choruses. Do you play piano or another instrument?

The songs you wrote are excellent.
Really you were blessed with an incredible talent and frankly, this
concert was like a dream come true to me.
Last but not least: some say jazz is dead but you are proving it is
definitively not dead with a jazz that sounds very actual!

Take care and sing, sing, sing!

Peace,
God bless you,
Fairianne Edwards

i was in your concert at Lausanne. It was fantastic..
Please, come to Turkey!

Went to Katerina's last night and enjoyed your voice and spirit. Can't wait for the opportunity to interview you :-).

Saw Ms Alexander for the very first time at the Cgo Jazz Festival and Oh My God, I am still mesmerized by her vocal talents and abilities as an artist. I have heard about her but never had the pleasure of witnessing her do her thang until now. I would like to be added to receive the newsletter or to the mailing list for any notifications as to when and wehere she will be performing. I recently had a death in the family and would like to purchase tickets for two people that needs to get out and unwind a bit and I thought that seeing Ms Alexander would be great for them. Please let me know where venue she will be performing (other than Hyde Park). I thank you so much for your time. "You're bad Dee"!!!

Great concert last night at Petrillo!! I purchased your cd but couldn't stay for the autograph session. Would it be possible for me to send you the booklet for you to sign with a self-addressed stamped envelope? If so, please advise me where to send it.

Also, I am a middle school music teacher and I like to hang autographed pictures of musicians in my classroom. Would it be possible to purchase a signed publicity photo of yourself which I could add to my collection?

Sincerely,
Paul Ropp

Congrats , you were always were the GODDESS!!.
Dianne Netsa Hodges
PS Love the POWERFUL COLORS of your website.
See you at Hyde PK Jazz Fest . Please make sure I get your Newsletter.

Hi Dee,

I just heard your singing and an interview on Satellite Radio on my way home from teaching Jazz Voice and the History of Jazz, and just want to say how much I enjoyed hearing you! Beautiful sound and great material! More later.

My Best, Teri Roiger www.teriroiger.com

I just wanted to say that my wife and I have been huge fans of your music for many years. We look forward to seeing you preform this Sunday since it will be our 28th anniversary. This may not be possible, but if you could dedicate a song to my wife Kathy it would absolutely make her day. Kathy loves your music and is already excited just to see your show. I look forward to seeing you in the park, there are few words to thank you adequately for The Joy You Bring us.
-Ken Ellingson

Hi Dee:

We're the guys who have seen you at Velvet Lounge and Jazz Showcase. Just got back from hearing you at the Green Mill. You blew us away!!! It was great to share you with friends amidst the rousing and much-deserved cheers of the audience.

Looking forward to the White House concert... it's gonna happen! :)

Bruce and Mitch

I’m glad to see you are booked for the Chicago Jazz Festival, but bummbed that you are only on stage about an hour.

come to argentina! you play great music!

Hello Dee

I'm Jay Greene, host of WDCB's All Things Jazz on Saturday Mornings. You probably don't get to hear me, my shift is 7-10AM.(most musicians don't hear the whole show)
I have been a fan of yours for a long time. I was reading my new Downbeat, and lo and behold your new cd was reviewed. Congratulations on the FIVE STARS! I've been giving it the same rating on my show, and have been playing it since it's release.
Keep the great art, and again, congratulations.

Dear Dee:

I would like to be added to your personal and media list. I absolutely love your music and style.

Princella Tobias
Thank you.

French: Votre voix est une merveille. Et ce premier disque un vrai bonheur.
Nous attendons votre retour en France. Merci pour ce bonheur que vous diffusez.

English: Your voice is a marvel. And this first disc a true happiness.
We wait for your return in France. Thank you for this happiness which you broadcast.

THIS BITTER EARTH..............Heard you for the first time on Sirius. What a total pleasure for a Saturday night, to make me recall all of the greats I've known, and add Dee Alexander . I'm a really old timer that grew up in Chicago when there was so much exposure to the legends of jazz and the friendliness to be able to converse one on one. I remember Dinah...................there's a hint with your style. But, I would honestly say that you bring an excitingly unique voice that will set new standards. Thanks for being here. I hope to see you in person. And , by the way, your pianist is fantastic.

Kindly add me to your email list.
I would like to know of upcoming perfomances, releases etc.

Thank you.
Sophia

Hello Queen!
Your website is fabulous!

I will be in Chicago from the 23rd - 26th and wanted to know if there will be any shows.
